Preferência de oviposição de Eugeniamyia dispar (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) em folhas e ramos de sua planta hospedeira Eugenia uniflora (Myrtaceae)

Abstract: A B S T R A C THost plant sites with high quality resources are more targeted by gallers. The study aimed to verify if Eugeniamyia dispar (Diptera) prefers to attack shoots and leaves of Eugenia uniflora (Myrtaceae) with higher vigor, as well to determine which vertical and horizontal microhabitats on leaves are more abundant of galls. It was measured lengths of shoots and leaves from adult individuals of E. uniflora. To determine the quantity of galled shoots and leaf gall abundance, it was distributed the sa… Show more

“…Each female of Eu. dispar can lay up to 30 eggs placed, preferably, close to the petiole and the main vein of new leaves of E. uniflora; after emergence, its larvae penetrate the leaf tissue, which induces the formation of galls (Maia et al 1996;Mendonça & Romanowski 2002;Bianchia et al 2018) resulting from hypertrophy of plant tissues triggered by a single galling larva (Mendonça & Romanowski 2002). At the end of the late larval stage, larvae of Eu.…”
