This investigation aimed to evaluate in vitro Metarhizium anisopliae as a biological control agent of Mocis latipes, which is present in the grassland of farms in the municipality of Tantoyuca, Veracruz. The research was developed in 2019, the native microorganisms were obtained from 48 soil samples taken in the animal production units, in not disturb areas or not affected places by human activities. The samples were inoculated in larvae of Galleria mellonella. Three Metarhizium anisopliae stock were isolated in potato-dextrose-agar medium. All of them were inoculated in groups of 10 mature Mocis latipes. The pathogenic test done showed that the isolated native stocks of Metarhizium anisopliae are a potential biological control agent of Mocis latipes. This pathogenic fungus could be used to design effective control programs to this pest, dispite M. lapites is not present all over the year but it is voracious. It is necessary to evaluate these M. anisopliae stocks in situ, with other pests like Aeneolamia spp and Prosapia spp, because of their economic impact and the damage caused to the forage grasses cultivated in the Huasteca Veracruzana. The fungus Metarhizium anisopliae, which is present in different kinds of lands, could be used to control pests because of its potential as a biocontrol agent. There are small populations of this fungus in the soil, therefore it is necessary a massive reproduction.
