opiine braconid parasitoids of tephritid pests have augmentative biological control potential, but there are no synthetic attractants to monitor their survival and dispersal following release. adults feed on fruit juices and these could be sources of attractive compounds. While orange juice (Citrus sinensis l.) is nutritious, guava juice (Psidium guajava l.) is toxic. the behavioral responses t...
متن کاملAnalyses of volatiles produced by the African fruit fly species complex (Diptera, Tephritidae) 385 Analyses of volatiles produced by the African fruit fly species complex (Diptera, Tephritidae)
Ceratitis fasciventris, Ceratitis anonae and Ceratitis rosa are polyphagous agricultural pests originating from the African continent. The taxonomy of this group (the so-called Ceratitis FAR complex) is unclear. To clarify the taxonomic relationships, male and female-produced volatiles presumably involved in premating communication were studied using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatogr...

The larval parasitoid, Psyttalia cf. concolor (Szépligeti), reared on Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Weidemann), by the USDA-APHIS-PPQ, Guatemala City, Guatemala, was imported into California for biological control of olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin), in olives, Olea europaea L. Mean percentage parasitism of olive fruit fly third instars infesting fruit in field cages ra...
متن کاملBehavioral and Electrophysiological Responses of the Mexican Fruit Fly (diptera: Tephritidae) to Guava Volatiles
The behavioral and electrophysiological responses of males and females of the Mexican fruit fly Anastrepha ludens (Loew) to guava ( Psidium guajava L.) volatiles were investigated in laboratory tests. Males and females were significantly more attracted and landed more often on guava fruits than yellow spheres used as control in the wind tunnel. Also, both sexes were more attracted to Porapak Q ...
متن کاملResponse of Three Hymenopteran Parasitoids Introduced for Fruit Fly Control to a Gall-Forming Tephritid, Procecidochares alani (Diptera: Tephritidae)
The response of three larval–pupal parasitoids, Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Ashmead), Diachasmimorpha tryoni (Cameron), and Tetrastichus giffardianus Silvestri, to the Hamakua pamakani gall fly, Procecidochares alani L., was determined in the laboratory. We also observed responses of these parasitoids to their normal rearing hosts, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) andCeratitis capitata (Weidemann...
