“…Based on the land use system, tropical rainforest habitats with heterogeneous vegetation have higher host types than orchard habitats with homogeneous vegetation. The numbers of fruit fly species collected in the forest were higher than in the orchard and home estate because vegetation diversity in the forest varies more (Linda et al 2018). In the tropics, the wide variety of plant resources available to insects combined with the high diversity of plants means that specialization on particular plant parts and even plant species are common (Grimbacher et al 2014).…”

“…This is why the number of fruit fly species found in tropical rainforest habitats is higher than in orchard habitats. Heterogeneous habitat like a forest is an area with high and stable vegetation diversity; the number of fruit fly species in this kind of area is also high, although some of them are not the dominant species (Linda et al 2018). Drew and Romig (2013) suggested that B. apicopicta was attracted to CL attractants in dry primary sclerophyll forest habitat.…”

“…Fruit fly species of the tribe Dacini are key pest groups in Asia and the Pacific regions (Dominiak and Worlsey 2018). They pose a serious threat to horticulture because of the damage inflicted and quarantine implications (Linda et al 2018). Fruit flies inhabit a variety of habitats, from tropical rainforests to orchards.…”

Abstract. Hudiwaku S, Himawan T, Rizali A. 2021. Diversity and species composition of fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) in Lombok Island, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 4608-4616. Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) are pests of several horticultural crops that can reduce the quality and quantity of fruit production. Information on fruit flies in Lombok Island, Indonesia, is still limited. However, it is predicted to have a high diversity of fruit flies because this island belongs to the Wallacea region. The aims of this research was to study the diversity and species composition of fruit flies in different habitat types in Lombok Island. The research was carried out on two habitat types, i.e., tropical rainforest and orchard with each habitat type consisted of three different sites that located spread across Lombok Island as replication. The research was carried out on two habitat types, i.e., tropical rainforest and orchard, with each habitat type consisted of three different sites spread across Lombok Island as replication. A sampling of fruit flies was conducted using parapheromone traps from March to June 2020. Twenty-two species and 210,267 individual fruit flies were collected from all locations during the study period. The most dominant species were Bactrocera carambolae, Bactrocera limbifera, Zeugodacus caudatus, and Bactrocera dorsalis. Based on the ANOVA, habitat types significantly affected the abundance but not the species richness of fruit flies. The visualization results obtained from the NMDS ordination indicated a difference in the species composition of fruit flies between the two habitats. In conclusion, habitat types are an essential factor in shaping the community of fruit flies in Lombok Island.

Fruit fly (Bactrocera spp.) is a major pest of horticultural crops, especially fruits. Fruit fly larvae feed on the flesh of fruit, and cause the decrease of both quantity and quality of the production. Fruit fly species on certain fruit in an area is important to be identified to make a right decision in choosing the control methods. The objectives of this study were to identify the fruit fly species, and determine the dominant species and diversity index of fruit flies on mangoes Gedong Gincu, Cengkir, and Arumanis at Kecamatan Talun, Kabupaten Cirebon, Indonesia. The survey was carried out by collecting samples of mango fruit attacked by fruit flies from field, wholesaler, and retailer at Kecamatan Talun. The results showed that there were four species that attack mangoes Gedong Gincu, Cengkir, and Arumanis at Kecamatan Talun, namely B. dorsalis; B. carambolae; interspesific hybrids of B. carambolae and B. dorsalis; and B. albistrigata. The dominant species was B. dorsalis. Diversity index (H’) of fruit fly species was 0,05 ≤ H’ ≤ 0,48 (H’ < 1,5), so that the diversity was considered low.

Biogeographic influences on the evolution and historical dispersal of the Australo‐Pacific Dacini fruit flies (Tephritidae: Dacinae)

Fruit flies (Tephritidae: Dacini) are a frugivorous insect group that exhibit high endemic diversity in the rainforests of Australia and the western Pacific. In this region, biogeography has been influenced by tectonic plate movements and cycles of isolation and re‐connection of landmasses and rainforest habitats during glacial periods. However, how such factors have influenced the speciation and historical dispersal of the regional Dacini is largely unknown. To address this, we use a dated phylogeny to reconstruct the biogeographical history of the tribe. We found the Dacini radiated eastward into the Pacific islands largely from sources in New Guinea. We also found evidence for historical dispersal from both Australia and New Guinea into New Caledonia, a pathway unique to this island compared with neighbouring islands. There was also evidence for multiple, bidirectional dispersal events between Papua New Guinea and Australia, likely facilitated by the cyclically exposed Torres Strait land bridge. Cape York in far northern Australia was likely the only entry point for species dispersing into Australia; there was no evidence for entry of flies into Australia directly from West Papua or Wallacea. Several lineages radiated after entering Australia, such as members of the Bactrocera dorsalis species group. Within Australia, speciation was not associated with the biogeographic barriers known to have impacted other rainforest fauna in eastern Australia. Overall, we demonstrate that isolation between islands and large landmasses is important in the evolution of the Australo‐Pacific Dacini, but the reason for their extensive radiation within Australia and Papua New Guinea remains unclear.
