“…The presence of N. glaberrima was already recorded for Bahia (Bittencourt et al, 2006b); this species infests different species of fruits (Lopes et al, 2008;Melo et al, 2012). Neosilba zadolicha was assigned as an important pest of citrus in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul (Uchôa-Fernandes et al, 2003), and in the region of Recôncavo Baiano this species was recorded infesting fruits of umbu-cajá (Spondias tuberosa × S. mombin) .…”

et al. 2016

The main goal of this paper was to know the species diversity of frugivorous flies (Tephritidae and Lonchaeidae) in Ilhéus, Uruçuca and Wenceslau Guimarães, municipalities in southern Bahia. In each sampled place five McPhail traps were used containing 5% corn hydrolyzed protein (Bio Anastrepha(c)), from July 2011 through December 2012. The captured adults were placed in plastic pots containing 70% alcohol, until identification, characterized according to diversity indexes of Shannon-Wiener, Margalef and equitability, and categorized according to the total number of captured flies: 2.24% species of genus Neosilba McAlpine (Lonchaeidae), and 97.76% species of genus Anastrepha Schiner, with 12 species reported, and Ceratitis capitata . The index fly/trap/day (FTD) oscillated from zero to 1.35 with the highest capture in March and April 2012, coinciding with the fructification period. The frugivorous flies captured were Anastrepha antunesi Lima, A. bahiensis Lima, A. consobrina (Loew), A. distincta Greene, A. fraterculus (Wied.), A. grandis (Macquart), A. leptozona Hendel, A. obliqua (Macquart), A. parallela (Wied.), A. serpentina (Wied.), A. sororcula Zucchi, A. zenildae Zucchi, C. capitata (Wied.), Neosilba glaberrima (Wied.) and Neosilba zadolicha McAlpine & Steyskal. Anastrepha fraterculus was the species with the highest index of frequency, dominance, abundance and constancy. It is the first register of A. consobrina in the state of Bahia.

“…They are distributed in the states of São Paulo, Mato Grosso do Sul, Bahia, Amapá, Amazonas, Rio de Janeiro, Espṍrito Santo, Paraná, Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, and Goiás (Uchô a-Fernandes et al 2002, Araú jo and Zucchi 2002, Santos et al 2004, Raga et al 2005, Strikis and Prado 2005, Bittencourt et al 2006, Aguiar-Menezes et al 2007, Strikis and Prado 2009, Strikis and Lerena 2009. Previous investigations of the host plants of Lonchaeidae were usually undertaken in cultivated areas, and knowledge of their hosts in natural environments is limited.…”

Fruit flies (Tephritidae) and lance flies (Lonchaeidae) (Diptera) include pests of highest economic importance to horticulture around the world, because various species damage high value fruit crops, These Tephritoidea are the reason for quarantine barriers among many countries, limiting the commerce of fresh fruits and vegetables. Knowledge of frugivorous tephritoid species richness and their interactions with the host plants are extremely important to Integrated Pest Management. This paper presents the interactions of 15 species of Anastrepha Schiner, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Tephritidae), and eight species of Neosilba McAlpine (Lonchaeidae) with 40 host fruit species. We discovered that Pouteria glomerata (Miquel) Radlkofer (Sapotaceae) is the host fruit of Anastrepha undosa Stone. A. zernyi Lima was associated with fruit of Anacardium othonianum Rizzini (Anacardiaceae). This is the first record of A. zernyi from the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, and of A. hastata Stone from Central Brazil, A. sorocula Zucchi and A. zenildae Zucchi were the tephritids that infested the highest number of host fruits, A. alveatoides Blanchard, A. distincta Greene, A. macrura Hendel, A. rheediae Stone and A. undosa Stone were recovered from only one species of host, and all of these associations are new records. Also established for the first time are the associations among eight species of Neosilba with 38 host species. N. zadolicha McAlpine and Steyskal, N. pendula (Bezzi), N. glaberrima (Wiedemann) and N. inesperata Strikis and Prado were the most polyphagous Lonchaeidae.

“…In Brazil, records of species of lance flies associated with fruit species are scarce, because in many studies their presence is neglected. However, the classification of some species as pests has recently attracted the attention of researchers (Veloso et al, 1994, Uchôa-Fernandes & Zucchi 1999, Uchôa-Fernandes et al, 2002, Bittencourt et al, 2006. Recent studies indicate that larvae of some species of Lonchaeidae colonize a larger number of fruit species than larvae of flies of the family Tephritidae (Ferreira et al, 2003).…”

Pioneer tree species as fruit flies parasitoids reservoir in the Brazilian Amazon

The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of the pioneer plant species Bellucia grossularioides (L.) Triana (Melastomataceae) to act as a reservoir for parasitoids of fruit flies in the Brazilian Amazon. We collected 48 samples of fruits (total of 4,012 fruits, 43.98 kg) during the months of July, August and September of 2013, in 15 of the 16 municipalities of Amapá State, Brazil. All samples showed infestation by fruit flies, with rates varying from 60.6 to 239.1 puparia/kg of fruit (mean of 106.8 puparia/kg of fruit). The percentage of emergence varied 18.6 to 64.3% (mean of 39.9%). Specimens of Anastrepha coronilli Carrejo & González (Diptera: Tephritidae) were obtained from all samples collected. Specimens of Neosilba (Diptera: Lonchaeidae) were obtained from five samples, where they were represented by Neosilba bella Strikis & Prado and Neosilba glaberrima (Wiedemann). The mean percentage of parasitism was 12.8%, varying 4.7 to 26.7%. Four species of parasitoids were obtained: Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti), Doryctobracon sp.2, Opius bellus Gahan (Braconidae) and Aganaspis pelleranoi (Brèthes) (Figitidae). Doryctobracon areolatus, present in all municipalities sampled, was the most abundant species. Considering that B. grossularioides is a plant species that is abundant in the area sampled, its relevance with respect to the maintenance of the population of parasitoids is discussed in the context of the integrated management of fruit flies in the Amazon.
