-A total of 3,008 braconid parasitoids in 26 species of fruit fl y host plants were collected in 33 localities of São Paulo State. The majority of the braconids (96.2%) belonged to four Opiinae species, Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti), Doryctobracon brasiliensis (Szépligeti), Opius bellus (Gahan) and Utetes anastrephae (Viereck), and the remaining 3.8%, a single species of Alysiinae, Asobara anastrephae (Muesebeck). Doryctobracon areolatus was collected on Anastrepha fraterculus (Wied), A. obliqua (Macquart) and A. amita Zucchi, and was found associated with the largest number of fruit fl y host plant species (26), being recorded for the fi rst time in fruits of Clausena lansium and Cryptocarya aschersoniana. This species was the most common, occurring in most of the sampled localities, totaling 77.5% of all parasitoids collected. Doryctobracon brasiliensis was associated only with A. fraterculus and recorded, for the fi rst time, in Japanese plum (Prunus salicina). It was not possible to associate the remaining braconids to the fruit fl y species. Opius bellus was also reared from larvae in C. aschersoniana. The natural parasitism percentage ranged from < 1% to 40%.KEY WORDS: Opiinae, Alysiinae, natural parasitism, distribution, Anastrepha RESUMO -Foram coletados 3.008 braconídeos em larvas/pupas de moscas-das-frutas em 26 espécies de frutos, distribuídos em 33 municípios paulistas. A maioria dos braconídeos pertencia a Opiinae (96,2%), representada por quatro espécies -Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti), Doryctobracon brasiliensis (Szépligeti), Opius bellus (Gahan) e Utetes anastrephae (Viereck) -e os demais a Alysiinae (3,8%), representada apenas por Asobara anastrephae (Muesebeck). Doryctobracon areolatus foi atraída por mais frutos hospedeiros de moscas-das-frutas (26) e ocorreu na maioria dos municípios amostrados, totalizando 77,5% dos parasitóides coletados. Doryctobracon areolatus foi associada com Anastrepha fraterculus (Wied.), A. obliqua (Macquart), A. amita Zucchi e, pela primeira vez, em frutos de wampi (Clausena lansium) e em canela-batalha (Cryptocarya aschersoniana). Doryctobracon brasiliensis foi associada apenas com A. fraterculus e registrada, pela primeira vez, em larvas em ameixa-japonesa (Prunus salicina). Não foi possível associar as demais espécies de parasitóides às espécies de moscas-das-frutas. Opius bellus foi obtida de larvas em canela-batalha. A percentagem de parasitismo natural variou de <1% a 40%.

“…Considering that since 1966, B. carambolae is a pest of quarantine importance in Brazil and given the similarity between Bactrocera dorsalis species complex (Wee & Tan, 2005), the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock often performs molecular analyses on specimens collected from the states where it is present (see Supplementary Material). Braconidae parasitoids were identified as described by Canal and Zucchi (2000) and Marinho et al (2011). The identification procedure for figitids followed Guimarães et al (2003), Buffington andRonquist (2006), andOvruski et al (2007).…”

“…Although braconid parasitoids prefer certain species of host flies, the physical (weight, color and size) and chemical (chemical volatiles) characteristics of fruit are also important factors in parasitoid attraction (Marinho, 2009). For example, parasitism is more difficult in large fruits, as the larvae have to burrow deep into the pulp (Sivinski, Aluja & López, 1997).…”

“…Ovipositor length also varies among species (D. areolatus −3.15 to 4.59 mm; O. bellus −0.93 to 1.66 mm; U. anastrephae −0.85 to 1.87 mm; and A. anastrephae −2.49 to 3.28 mm (Marinho, 2009) and is a determining factor in parasitism. The shorter ovipositor of U. anastrephae may be an adaptation for foraging on smaller fruits, potentially competing with D. areolatus, which has a longer ovipositor (Sivinski, Aluja & López, 1997).…”

Fruit flies are economically important pests that infest a wide variety of host trees. The environmental damage caused by traditional pesticide-based control methods has prompted scientists to seek less damaging alternatives such as biological control by native species. Parasitoids, especially Braconidae species, have excellent potential as biological control agents for fruit flies, being both generalists and well distributed geographically. Native fruit trees that support medium or high levels of these parasitoids could therefore play an important role in biological control strategies. A good potential example is Spondias mombin L. in the Brazilian Amazon, which hosts several species of fruit flies and associated parasitoids. Here, we provide a unique synthesis of over nearly two decades of data from the east Amazon, clearly demonstrating the potential of S. mombin to act as a source and reservoir of fruit fly parasitoids. This important ecosystem service (biological control) provided by the parasitoids and supported by S. mombin could be further enhanced through conservation of this plant species in its natural environment.
