“…Thiamethoxam is registered for many horticultural crops in Brazil, including zucchini, watermelon, melon and cucumber [20]. Anastrepha grandis is a quarantine pest for many countries, with a risk of spreading to fruit fly free areas and those under mitigation risk systems on the American continent [5]. In some regions of the state of São Paulo, A. grandis infestations cause significant yield losses in orange pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima) and Tetsukabuto hybrid (C. maxima x C. moschata).…”

“…and the South American cucurbit fruit fly, Anastrepha grandis (Macquart) are important pests of fruits and cucurbit crops, respectively, in Latin American countries [1,2,3]. Anastrepha fraterculus attacks 116 host plants in Brazil [4], while A. grandis exclusively infests wild and commercial cucurbit fruits, especially species and hybrids of Cucurbita [5].…”

Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) of economic and quarantine significance are responsible for both quantitative and qualitative losses in horticulture. Most producers in Brazil use insecticides as a cover spray for the control of fruit flies. Here new insecticide molecules were evaluated under laboratory conditions as potential replacements for organophosphates to provide protection and prevent damage to horticultural crops. Five pairs of Anastrepha fraterculus (Wied.) and Anastrepha grandis (Wied.) were placed into Petri dishes and exposed to eight insecticides using a Potter spray tower. The number of insect deaths was monitored until 21 hours after spraying. In general, both Anastrepha species exhibited similar susceptibility to the insecticides. Different fruit fly mortalities were observed among the insecticide treatments beginning 30 minutes after exposure. Interactions were verified between the compounds and fruit fly species and between evaluation periods and treatments. Acetamiprid, deltamethrin, flypyradifurone (1.60 ppm), imidacloprid, phosmet, thiamethoxam and zeta-cypermethrin caused similar mortalities 21 hours after treatment for both fruits fly species.

“…Only one female of Anastrepha sororcula Zucchi was recorded from Tailandesa guava. This shows that even with (SANTOS et al, 2004;MONTES et al, 2010;UCHÔA & NICÁCIO, 2010;RAGA et al, 2015;BALDO et al, 2017;CASTILHO et al, 2017;GISLOTI et al, 2017;COELHO et al, 2018;SANTOS et al, 2018;SOUZA et al, 2019 RAGA et al, 2011), in addition to being an important citrus pest (LOUZEIRO et al, 2021).…”

Fruits of two cultivars of guava, Psidium guajava L., (‘Tailandesa’ and ‘Kumagai’) and garlic passion fruit, Passiflora tenuifila Killip were collected to evaluate the infestation and co-infestation of frugivorous flies and the associated parasitoids and new hosts. Five species of Tephritoidea were recovered in Tailandesa guavas, three species in Kumagai guavas and three species in garlic passion fruit. This is the first report of a frugivorous fly infesting P. tenuifila. Individualization of the fruit samples was used to determine the co-infestation between Anastrepha spp., Ceratitis capitata and Neosilba spp. in each fruit. There was a fly/parasitoid association for Doryctobracon areolatus and Lopheucoila anastrephae with Anastrepha fraterculus in guavas. Infestation indices and emergence rate demonstrated that Tailandesa and Kumagai guavas are hosts capable of withstanding an infestation index ≥ 50 pupae/fruit and have an emergence rate ≥ 75%. The ability of some hosts to maintain and sustain the population of frugivorous flies at high levels may interfere with pest management.
