Pterocerina anastrepha is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae. [1] [2] [3]
Annona is a genus of flowering plants in the pawpaw/sugar apple family, Annonaceae. It is the second largest genus in the family after Guatteria, containing approximately 166 species of mostly Neotropical and Afrotropical trees and shrubs.
Anastrepha is the most diverse genus in the American tropics and subtropics. Currently, it comprises more than 300 described species, including nine major pest species, such as the Mexican fruit fly, the South American fruit fly, the West Indian fruit fly, the sapote fruit fly, the Caribbean fruit fly, the American guava fruit fly, and the pumpkin fruit fly, as well as the papaya fruit fly. As some of their names suggest, these pest species are one of the most numerous and damaging groups of insects in their native range, plaguing commercial fruits such as citrus, mango, guava, and papaya.
Anastrepha bivittata is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Anastrepha of the family Tephritidae. The only known host plant is Gessiopermum laeve (Vell.) Miers.
Anastrepha consobrina is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Anastrepha of the family Tephritidae.
Anastrepha ethalea is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Anastrepha of the family Tephritidae.
Anastrepha integra is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Anastrepha of the family Tephritidae.
Pterocerina is a genus of picture-winged flies in the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina fenestrata is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina ruficauda is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina townsendi is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina bifasciata is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina nigripennis is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina paradoxa is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Pterocerina stylata is a species of ulidiid or picture-winged fly in the genus Pterocerina of the family Ulidiidae.
Anastrepha fenestrata is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Anastrepha.
Anastrepha ludens, the Mexican fruit fly or Mexfly, is a species of fly of the Anastrepha genus in the Tephritidae family. It is closely related to the Caribbean fruit fly Anastrepha suspensa, and the papaya fruit fly Anastrepha curvicauda.
Anastrepha suspensa, known as the Caribbean fruit fly, the Greater Antillean fruit fly, guava fruit fly, or the Caribfly, is a species of tephritid fruit fly. As the names suggest, these flies feed on and develop in a variety of fruits, primarily in the Caribbean. They mainly infest mature to overripe fruits. While thought to have originated in Cuba, the Caribbean fruit fly can now also be found in Florida, Hispaniola, and Puerto Rico.
Anastrepha obliqua is a species of fruit fly. It is the most important fruit fly pest of mangoes in Neotropics and attacks a wide range of other spicy fruits. A. obliqua is widespread in Mexico, Central and South America and the West Indies. It is sometimes called the West Indian fruit fly in English.
Anastrepha grandis is a fruit fly, also known as the South American cucurbit fruit fly. It is a pest of various cultivated species of Cucurbitaceae, especially the pumpkin, squash and melon. Anastrepha grandis is found in almost all South American countries.
Anastrepha fraterculus, known as the South American fruit fly, is a fruit fly species from the genus Anastrepha. A. fraterculus is a polyphagous, frugivorous fly that is a significant pest of commercial fruit production in South America.
