Anastrepha fraterculus (South American fruit fly).
Keyword(s):
Abstract A. fraterculus has a broad host range, particularly in the family Myrtaceae, but it is also a pest of citrus and apples [Malus domestica] in some areas. It is the most important pest species of Anastrepha in subtropical areas of South America, thus it and Anastrepha ludens may be more of a threat of introduction to other subtropical areas of the world than other species of Anastrepha. It is invasive in the Galapagos Islands. As it is probably a complex of cryptic species whose ranges and delimitation remain unresolved, there is also the threat of introduction of particular cryptic species to other areas within the range of the complex. It is considered an A1 quarantine pest by EPPO.
