Previous morphometric studies based on linear measurements of female structures the aculeus, mesonotum, and wing revealed existence seven morphotypes within Anastrepha fraterculus cryptic species complex along Neotropical Region. The current research followed geometric approaches in 40 population samples nominal A. (Wiedemann) spread throughout Meso-American Pacific dominions (including Mexico, Central America, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru). goals were to explore phenotypic...
Abstract The A nastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) cryptic species complex is currently composed of seven taxonomically recognized morphotypes. Both, pre‐ and post‐zygotic isolation has been documented among four these morphotypes, revealing that in fact they appear to be distinct biological entities. In order progress the full delimitation within complex, we examined reproductive between a C olombian population ndean morphotype populations belonging other morphotypes...
The occurrence of cryptic species among economically important fruit flies strongly affects the development management tactics for these pests. Tools studying not only facilitate evolutionary and systematic studies, but they also provide support fly quarantine activities. Previous studies have shown that South American fly, Anastrepha fraterculus, is a complex species, few been performed on morphology its immature stages. An analysis mandible shape linear morphometric variability was applied...
Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) is a major pest in stored cereals Colombia, which causes significant lossesin production. Chemical control the main tool used country, and despite common use ofinsecticides such as deltamethrin, resistance has been observed some Colombian populations but isa worldwide problem. The objective of this work was to evaluate efficacy deltamethrin thecombination piperonyl butoxide R. dominica. Failureto survival tests showed that recommended doses on product labels were...
Fruit fly sexual behaviour is directly influenced by chemical and non-chemical cues that play important roles in reproductive isolation. The profiles of pheromones cuticular hydrocarbons (CHs) eight fruit populations the Andean, Brazilian-1 Brazilian-3 morphotypes Anastrepha fraterculus cryptic species complex originating from Colombia (four populations) Brazil were analysed using two-dimensional gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection. resulting diversity data studied principal...
The West Indian fruit fly, Anastrepha obliqua, is one of seven species quarantine importance its genus and the most economically important fly pests in Colombia. taxonomic status this a key issue for further implementation any pest management program. Several molecular studies have shown enough variability within obliqua to suggest could be revised; however, there are no morphological supporting hypothesis. aim work was describe Colombian populations comparing with that other samples from...
Anastrepha is the most diverse and economically important genus of Tephritidae in American tropics many species remain undescribed. Three new A. acuminata, carreroi sinuosa collected from Colombia are described this paper six species: A.isolata, perdita, sororcula, montei, panamensis lanceola reported for first time. The Colombian discussed.
The infestation levels by Anastrepha zenildae Zucchi in common guava (Psidium guajava L.) were evaluated.The surveys carried out commercial groves of three counties the North State Minas Gerais, Brazil, from January to April 1996.A. should be considered a species economic importance region as indices (larvae/kg and larvae/fruit) higher than those obtained for A. sororcula Zucchi.Only these two directly fruits.Besides sororcula, specimens fraterculus (Wied.), obliqua (Macquart) new also...
Las moscas de la fruta (Tephritoidea: Tephritidae y Lonchaeidae) son una las principales plagas fruticultura a nivel mundial. El conocimiento interacciones que presentan frugívoras con sus plantas hospederas parasitoides es necesario para el desarrollo programas manejo integrado estas plagas. objetivo este trabajo fue describir relaciones tritróficas (plantas hospederas, parasitoides) en un parche bosque seco tropical Centro Universitario Regional del Norte municipio Armero-Guayabal, Tolima....
The Neotropical genus of lance flies Neosilba McAlpine could be found associated with fruits, flowers or buds plants. There are few basic applied studies these insects, including data on taxonomy and/or economic importance. We described ten new species from Colombia: N. plana sp. nov., tolimensis amphora convexa concava orbata spiculata angusta distospinosa nov. and piracea presented a key for the all 40 valid genus, included in five groups two subgroups: major, parva, peltae, pendula...
For centuries, islands and mountains have incited the interest of naturalists, evolutionary biologists ecologists. Islands been cradle for biogeography speciation theories, while mountain ranges informed how population adaptation to thermal floors shapes distribution species globally. varying size mountains’ altitudinal constitute unique “natural laboratories” where one can investigate effects loss or global warming on ecosystem service delivery. Although invertebrate pollination seed...
Em seis locais de quatro municípios (Janaúba, Jaíba, Nova Porteirinha e Itacarambí) do norte Estado Minas Gerais, foram coletados 29.454 espécimes mosca-das-frutas, pertencentes a Ceratitis capitata 20 espécies Anastrepha. O levantamento foi feito entre janeiro 94 dezembro 96, utilizando armadilhas plásticas tipo McPhail. espécie predominante em áreas urbanas. As Anastrepha predominaram rurais. A. obliqua, zenildae n. sp.3 as predominantes gênero, entretanto, essa predominância variou local...
The South America fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus s.l. is an important pest of fruits in Latin and it really a complex with at least eight cryptic species. In this work, we report the complete mitochondrial genome for Andean morphotype A. fraterculus. 16,739 nucleotides size; includes 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA 2 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using all genes other 19 species from Tephritidae.
El objetivo de este trabajo fue contribuir al conocimiento la diversidad moscas las frutas (Diptera: Tephritidae) y sus enemigos naturales en el departamento Nariño. Se colectaron 14.005 frutos correspondientes a 16 especies plantas hospederas, pertenecientes 10 familias botánicas (Rubiaceae, Rosaceae, Myrtaceae, Fabaceae, Anacardiaceae, Rutaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Annonaceae, Solanaceae Caricaceae), cuales todas presentaron infestación por o parasitoides, excepción familia Annonaceae. Las...
Climate change has affected the geographical distributions of most species worldwide; in particular, insects economic importance inhabiting tropical regions have been impacted. Current and future predictions geographic distribution are frequently included models (SDMs). The potential spatial fruit fly Anastrepha striata Schiner, main agricultural guava crops, under current possible scenarios Colombia were modeled, establishment risk was assessed for each guava-producing municipality country....
Se determinaron las especies de mántidos que habitan el departamento del Tolima, Colombia, a partir la colección material en campo y revisión Museo Laboratorio Entomología Universidad Tolima. Las colecciones se realizaron cuenca Rio Coello; área muestreo dividió diez secciones según su altitud; cada sección escogieron dos puntos, donde capturaron especímenes transectos 100 m2. En punto realizó una inspección 45 minutos busca mántidos. encontraron 22 zona, incluida posible nueva especie para...
Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is one of the principal quarantine pests in Colombian fruit production. Studies have shown that nominal species a complex cryptic and more common biological entity exists Colombia, "Andean morphotype," species, different from others on continent. The bioecological information available for this morphotype scarce, yet it essential establishing integrated pest management programs defining insect's status. Knowledge pest's population...
