Outbreak of Lauritrioza alacris (Flor, 1861) (Hemiptera, Triozidae) in a commer...

Aggregation and spatio-temporal dynamics of fruit flies (Diptera, Tephritidae) ...

We investigated aggregation patterns in three fruit fly species economically important in Brazil, namely Ceratitis capitata, Anastrepha fraterculus, and A. obliqua. The study was carried out in a buffer zone and two neighbourhoods by comparing two-time series associated with the management strategy of fruit flies (systems approach). The abundance of these three species significantly decreased over the years wit...

Survey of Tephritidae and Lonchaeidae (Diptera), their host plants and parasito...

New records of Anastrepha Schiner, 1868 (Diptera, Tephritidae) in an urban fore...

Parasitoid diversity (Hymenoptera: Braconidae and Figitidae) on frugivorous lar...

This study aimed to identify parasitoid species of frugivorous larvae and to describe the tritrophic interactions involving wild fruits, frugivorous insects and their natural enemies at Adolpho Ducke Forest Reserve (RFAD) (Manaus, AM, Brazil). Collections were performed in four 1 km2 quadrants in the corners of the RFAD. The wild fruits were collected inside the forest in access trails leading to each collectio...

Morphologic characterization of ten species of Trichogramma (Hymenoptera: Trich...

Ten species of Trichogramma (T. acacioi Brun, Moraes & Soares, T. atopovirilia Oatman & Platner, T. exiguum Pinto & Platner, T. fuentesi Torre, T. galloi Zucchi, T. lasallei Pinto, T. lopezandinensis Sarmiento, T. nerudai Pintureau & Gerding, T. pintoi Voegele ́ e T. rojasi Nagaraja & Nagarkatti) were studied based on male morphology. A scanning electronic microscope was used to illustrate the most important ch...

Trichogramma species (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) collected in suction trap...

For the first time an electrical suction trap was used to collect specimens of Trichogramma. The total of 551 Trichogramma specimens were collected belonging to nine species namely T. acuminatum Querino & Zucchi, T. alloeovirilia Querino & Zucchi, T. bruni Nagaraja, T. parrai Querino & Zucchi, T. pretiosum Riley, T. pusillus Querino & Zucchi, T. tupiense Querino & Zucchi, T. zucchii Querino and Trichogramma sp....

Genetic structure and diversity in Brazilian populations of Anastrepha obliqua ...

Anastrepha obliqua (Macquart), the West Indian fruit fly, is one of the most economically important pest species in the Neotropical region. It infests an extensive range of host plants that include over 60 species. The geographic range of A. obliqua is from northern Mexico to southern Brazil and includes the Caribbean Islands. Previous molecular studies have revealed significant genetic structure among populati...
