This research aimed to assess the toxicity of the pesticides abamectin 18 CE (0.02 g a.i. L -1 ), carbaryl 480 SC (1.73 g a.i. L -1 ), sulfur 800 GrDA (4.8 g a.i. L -1 ), fenitrothion 500 CE (0.75 g a.i. L -1 ), methidathion 400 CE (0.4 g a.i. L -1 ), and trichlorfon 500 SC (1.5 g a.i. L -1 ) as applied in integrated apple production in Brazil on the survival, oviposition capacity, and egg viability of the lacewing,  Chrysoperla externa  (Hagen) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) from Bento Gonçalves and Vacaria, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. An attempt was made to study morphological changes caused by some of these chemicals, by means of ultrastructural analysis, using a scanning electronic microscope. Carbaryl, fenitrothion, and methidathion caused 100% adult mortality for both populations, avoiding evaluation of pesticides' effects on predator reproductive parameters. Abamectin and sulfur also affected the survival of these individuals with mortality rates of 10% and 6.7%, respectively, for adults from Bento Gonçalves, and were harmless to those from Vacaria at the end of evaluation. Trichlorfon was also harmless to adults from both populations. No compound reduced oviposition capacity.  C. externa  from Vacaria presented higher reproductive potential than those from Bento Gonçalves. In relation to egg viability, sulfur was the most damaging compound to both populations of  C. externa . Ultrastructural analyses showed morphological changes in the micropyle and the chorion of eggs laid by  C. externa  treated with either abamectin or sulfur. The treatment may have influenced the fertilization of  C. externa  eggs and embryonic development. Sulfur was responsible for malformations in the end region of the abdomen and genitals of treated females. When applied to adults, abamectin, sulfur, and trichlorfon were harmless, while carbaryl, fenitrothion, and methidathion were harmful, according to the IOBC classification.
