ABSTRACT
Fruits were collected over a 12-year period to determine the host status for the Carambola fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock, and other tephritid species in Suriname, South America. Over 11,000 fruit samples were collected from many locations and the total of 20 fruit species were recorded as host, ranging in infestation from heavy to occasional. Over 650 samples of 188 fruit species, including many wild species, were collected and no fruit flies were reared. This work, which started specifically to obtain information on the Carambola fruit fly, resulted also in detailed information regarding the importance, distribution and host preferences of several Anastrepha species, and the status of fruit fly parasitoids.
RESUMO
Durante um periodo de 12 anos foram coletados frutos para determinar as plantas hospedeiras da mosca-da-carambola, Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock, e outras espécies de tefrítidos que ocorrem no Suriname, América do Sul. Mais de 11.000 amostras de frutos foram coletadas de diversas localidades e somaram o total de 20 espécies de frutos tidos como hospedeiros, classificados como infestação entre forte e até ocasional. Mais de 650 amostras de 188 espécies de frutos, incluindo várias espécies selvagens, foram coletadas porém não foram encontradas as moscas nas frutas. Este trabalho, que começou especificamente para obter informações sobre a mosca-da-carambola, resultou também em informações sobre a importância, distribuição e preferência de diferentes espécies de Anastrepha para as plantas hospedeiras e a importância de parasitóides de moscas-das-frutas.
