Currently, the major method for controlling leaf-cutting ants uses toxic baits containing the insecticide sulfluramide. Such compound presents harmful effects to the environment and to human health, which drive the community’s concerns towards new strategies for controlling these insects. Previous studies showed the occurrence of Syncephalastrum racemosum in nests of the leaf-cutting ants submitted to treatments using insecticides. In order to understand the role of S. racemosum in nests of leaf-cutting ants, the present work investigated the antagonism of S. racemosum towards the leaf-cutting ant-cultivar (Leucoagaricus gongylophorus). Using in vitro essays, we co-cultivated L. gongylophorus and S. racemosum (n= 6 lineages). For comparison, we also used the same setup to test one strain of Escovopsis weberi, since this fungus is considered a specialized parasite of the leaf-cutting ant cultivar. All S. racemosum strains inhibited the growth of L. gongylophorus (ANOVA 2 way, F= 23,61, P< 0,01). The same was observed for E. weberi. There were no significant difference between S. racemosum and E. weberi inhibition (Bonferroni test, P> 0,05). In addition, we verified that all S. racemosum strains colonized and sporulated over the fungus garden up to 96 h after garden fragments without workers were inoculated with spores suspensions. Similar results were observed on gardens that were inoculated with spores of E. weberi. The results indicate that S. racemosum act as antagonist of the leaf-cutting ant cultivar. The putative possibility for using S. racemosum as biological control agent of leaf-cutting ants is discussed in the present work
