Anastrepha striata Schiner is one of the most common species of fruit flies throughout most of its range. It, however, has not acquired a well established common name as have others such as the Mexican, Caribbean, and Mediterranean fruit fly. This probably is because it is not considered to be of primary economic importance, although it often is abundant and may be highly destructive to dooryard plantings of some tropical fruits. This document is EENY-265 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circular 245), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Accidental Introduction

The Natal fruit fly, Ceratitis rosa Karsch, was described in 1887 from specimens collected at Delagoa Bay, Mozambique. By 1900 it was recognized as a pest of orchard fruits throughout much of KwaZulu Natal Province, Republic of South Africa, and is considered to be the most common fruit fly of economic importance in Rhodesia. Following its accidental introduction into the island of Mauritius about 1953, this fly became firmly established and largely replaced the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), as a pest of fruits. In South Africa the Natal fruit fly ranks second in importance only to the Mediterranean Fruit Fly, and at times it is an even more serious pest. This document is EENY-257 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circular 51), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Anastrepha edentata Stone has been collected in the Florida keys in every month of the year, but its host plants still are unknown. It is one of six species of fruit flies of the genus Anastrepha which occur in Florida or which have been established in Florida at some time. According to Division of Plant Industry records, it has not been found in Florida since 1936. There is a possibility that this species has not survived in Florida. It is not considered to be of economic importance anywhere within its range. This document is EENY-264 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circular 76), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

The Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), is one of the world's most destructive fruit pests. The species originated in sub-Saharan Africa and is not known to be established in the United States. When it has been detected in Florida and California, especially in recent years, each infestation necessitated intensive and massive eradication and detection procedures so that the pest did not become established. This document is EENY-214 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circulars 4, 230 and 273), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Important Pest

Anastrepha grandis (Macquart) (1846: 227), which exists in several South American countries and possibly Panama, attacks watermelon and other fruits of the family Cucurbitaceae. Once a pest of minor to moderate importance generally, in recent years it has become a rather important pest. The pest status differs in each country and has changed in the last decade. This species would seem to be potentially of economic importance in Florida and southern Texas should it ever be introduced there. It has been intercepted in the United States in pumpkin from Argentina and Brazil, and one adult was found in banana debris from Panama. This document is EENY-205 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circular 334), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Anastrepha ocresia (Walker) is one of six species of fruit flies of the genus Anastrepha which occur in Florida or which have been established in Florida at some time. This West Indian species has been collected in Florida only in the Keys of Monroe County where it has been found sparingly; it has not been found in Florida since 1936. There is a distinct possibility that this species has not survived in Florida. It is not considered to be of economic importance anywhere within its range. This document is EENY202, one of a series of the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

South American Fruit Fly

Anastrepha fraterculus was described in the genus Dacus by Wiedemann (1830), based on specimens from Brazil. This species is of great economic importance because of the wide variety of plants which it attacks and its extensive distribution. In most of South America it probably is the most important species of Anastrepha. This document is EENY-266 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circular 217), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

The Caribbean fruit fly, Anastrepha suspensa (Loew), has also been called the Greater Antilliean fruit fly, the guava fruit fly and the Caribfly. It is a near relative of the Mexican fruit fly, Anastrepha ludens (Loew), and is one of several species of fruit flies which are indigenous to the West Indies and the larvae of which attack several kinds of tropical and subtropical fruits. This document is EENY-196 (originally published as DPI Entomology Circulars 38 and 260), one of a series of Featured Creatures from the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.
