Fernandes,Daniell Rodrigo Rodrigues; Araujo,Elton Lucio; Marques,Dayse Willkenia Almeida; Limeira-de-Oliveira,Francisco; Rafael,José AlbertinoABSTRACT We recorded for the first time the presence of the two fruit flies pests, Anastrepha obliqua (Macquart) and Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) and the parasitoid Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) in the oceanic archipelago of Fernando de Noronha, Pernambuco, Brazil. The specimens were collected in traps installed during June/2019 to February/2020. The fru...
Pupal parasitoids associated with Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Teph...
Silva,Bárbara Karine de Albuquerque; Silva,Hellanny Matos da; Fernandes,Elania Clementino; Costa,Valmir Antonio; Araujo,Elton LucioAbstract Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) are important pests that affect the fruit-growing worldwide. In the northeastern Brazil, where a semiarid climate predominates and the production of tropical fruits for export is concentrated, some fruit flies, including Anastrepha spp. and Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), are considered pests due to economic damage and quarantine restrictions. In several parts of the ...
Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) in commercial mango orchards in a semiarid r...
Sousa,Márcia Mayara de; Araujo,Elton Lucio; Silva,Janisete Gomes; Barbosa,Douglas Rafael Silva; Fernandes,Elania ClementinoAbstract Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) are important mango (Mangifera indica L.) pests in several parts of the world. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to know the species of fruit flies associated with commercial mango orchards in a semiarid region of Rio Grande do Norte state, Brazil; report the species of quarantine importance; discuss the influence of the semiarid environment on the distr...
Determination of damaged leaf area and physiological responses of melon plants ...
Costa,Ewerton M; Freitas,Rômulo Magno O; Silva,Paolo Augustus F; Araujo,Elton LucioABSTRACT The leafminer Liriomyza sativae (Diptera: Agromyzidae) is one of the main pests of melon crop (Cucumis melo) in the Brazilian semiarid. The aims of this study were to determine the damaged leaf area and assess the physiological responses of melon plants submitted to different levels of infestation per larvae of L. sativae. The study was carried out in a greenhouse, using plants of melon of the cultivar...
Extrato aquoso de sementes de nim no controle de Liriomyza sativae (Diptera: Ag...
Costa,Ewerton Marinho; Torres,Salvador Barros; Ferreira,Roberta Rocha; Silva,Flávia Gomes da; Araujo,Elton LucioRESUMO O controle da mosca minadora é imprescindível nas áreas de produção de melão dos estados do Rio Grande do Norte e Ceará. Portanto, o objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o efeito de diferentes concentrações do extrato aquoso de sementes de nim (Azadirachta indica) sobre a mosca minadora (Liriomyza sativae). O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, constituído por sete tratamentos...
Thrips collected in watermelon crops in the semiarid of Rio Grande do Norte, Br...
Costa,Ewerton Marinho; Lima,Maria Goretti Araújo de; Junior,Rui Sales; Cavalleri,Adriano; Araujo,Elton LucioThe aim of this research was to report the occurrence of two species of thrips in watermelon crops in the semiarid region of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. From August to September 2011, we performed weekly sampling of thrips in a commercial watermelon production area with 10,000m2, using 20 Moericke traps. We captured a total of 431 thrips, belonging to Frankliniella schultzei (Trybom) (Thripidae) and Haplothrip...
Biological aspects of the leafminer Liriomyza sativae (Diptera: Agromyzidae) on...
Araujo,Elton Lucio; Nogueira,Carlos Henrique Feitosa; Menezes Netto,Alexandre Carlos; Bezerra,Carlos Eduardo SouzaThe leafminer Liriomyza sativae Blanchard is an important insect pest on melon crops in Brazil. However, the information about its biology on melon (Cucumis melo L.) is scarce. Therefore, the aim of this research was to know some biological aspects of this pest, reared on melon plants, under laboratory conditions at 25°C. Our results showed that the biological cycle of L. sativae lasts 15.9±0.04 days (egg-adult...

Araujo,Elton Lucio; Ribeiro,Juliana da Costa; Chagas,Marcone Cesar Mendonça; Dutra,Vivian Siqueira; Silva,Janisete GomesAs moscas-das-frutas (Diptera: Tephritidae) são pragas-chave na cultura da goiabeira Psidium guajava L., com predominância de diferentes espécies de acordo com a região produtora no Brasil. Os objetivos do presente trabalho foram conhecer a diversidade e analisar parâmetros faunísticos das moscas-das-frutas obtidas em um pomar de goiabeira, no município de Cruzeta, Rio Grande do Norte, situado no semiárido bras...
Resistência de acessos de meloeiro à mosca-minadora Liriomyza spp. (Diptera: Ag...
Nunes,Glauber Henrique de Sousa; Medeiros,Alexis Calafange; Araujo,Elton Lucio; Nogueira,Carlos Henrique Feitosa; Sombra,Karla Diana da SilvaA mosca-minadora é a principal praga do cultivo do melão no Nordeste brasileiro. Dentro de um programa do manejo integrado de pragas, o uso de resistência genética é um método de fácil adoção, ecológico e que proporciona a redução dos custos com aplicação de defensivos. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a resistência de acessos de meloeiro à mosca-minadora. Vinte e dois acessos e três híbridos foram a...
First survey of fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) and parasitoid diversity among...
Silva,Lidia Nogueira; Santos,Mírian Silva; Dutra,Vivian Siqueira; Araujo,Elton Lucio; Costa,Marco Antonio; Silva,Janisete GomesThe objective of this study was to evaluate the diversity of fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) species that use myrtaceous fruit, particularly guava, as hosts in several localities in the state of Bahia and to determine the infestation rates, pupal viability rates, and fruit fly-parasitoid associations. Sampling of myrtaceous fruit was carried out in 24 municipalities in different regions in the state of Bahia. ...
