Boca Raton, USA: CRC Press. In fruits that both species attack the newcomer appears to be out-competing the Queensland fruit fly. The Queensland fruit fly (Bactrocera tryoni) is a significant horticultural pest in Australia, and has also established in other parts of the Pacific.

Population Ecology, 42:153-160, Rungrojwanich K, Walter GH, 2000. Pupariation is in the soil under the host plant for about 7 days but may be delayed under cool conditions. Reports of hybridization between B. tryoni and B. aquilonis (EPPO, 2002) (a similar species in the Northern Territory) are almost certainly erroneous as those two species lack sympatry.

Three Australian tephritid fruit flies (Bactrocera tryoni - Q-fly, Bactrocera neohumeralis - NEO, and Bactrocera jarvisi - JAR) are promising models for genetic studies of pest status and invasiveness. The Queensland fruit fly has been described as one of the biggest threats to New Zealand horticulture. Fruit Fly Control – Make Your Own Fruit Fly Traps. To add to the horror is knowing what to use to get rid of fruit flies fast. Many countries, such as the mainland USA, forbid the import of susceptible fruit without strict post-harvest treatment having been applied by the exporter. Tergite 4 dark laterally.

Conversely, frugivorous birds and rodents can destroy a large percentage of wild fruit in some places that would be otherwise available to fruit flies or have fruit fly larvae already in them (Drew, 1987). After 14 days of intensive surveillance and fruit monitoring, no further Queensland fruit flies have been detected.

Most of the data given here are from the host catalogue of Hancock et al. Population suppression in the Queensland fruit fly, Dacus (Strumeta) tryoni. Professor Clarke said Queensland growers had suffered more than $100 million in lost markets when the Papaya fruit fly invaded the country in the 90s. Consequently, no comprehensive list of parasitoid records is given here; those listed were extracted from Waterhouse (1993) and Wharton and Gilstrap (1983). This is a simple physical barrier to oviposition but it has to be applied well before the fruit is attacked. Legs: All femora yellow / pale.

What do I do to stop further infestation. The genetic structure of populations of an invading pest fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni, at the species climatic range limit. Features include trap arrays for early warning and prompt responses, border inspections, community awareness programmes as well as bait-spraying and the male annihilation technique (MAT) (Jessup et al., 2007). 12 Tahiti Fruit Fly Eradication Programme reported that, eradication of Oriental fruit fly commenced in 1997, had to re-start the program in 1999 – 2001 (French Government funding).

Sved* Fruit Fly Research Centre, School of Biological Sciences A12, University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia Abstract World Crop Pests. Fletcher (1989b) provides dispersal data for only 11 of 651 species of Bactrocera, many of the case studies lack the necessary numerical data, and the study did not discern between active flight and passive wind-assisted dispersal. B. tryoni is larger than a house fly (wing length 4.8-6.3 mm). Chemical methods for suppression or eradication of fruit fly populations. The distribution of NEO is contained entirely within the wider distribution of Q-fly and the two species are ecologically extremely similar, with no known differences in pheromones, temperature tolerance, or host-fruit utilisation. The Queensland fruit fly (Bactrocera tryoni; Q-fly) is an Australian endemic horticultural pest species, which has caused enormous economic losses. White I M, Elson-Harris M M, 1994.

Heat treatment tends to reduce the shelf life of most fruits and so the most effective method of regulatory control is to preferentially restrict imports of a given fruit to areas free of fruit fly attack.Cultural Control and Sanitary Methods Many transient incursions, some eradicated, remainder dying out without action, Managed forests, plantations and orchards, Aw - Tropical wet and dry savanna climate, < 60mm precipitation driest month (in winter) and < (100 - [total annual precipitation{mm}/25]), Cf - Warm temperate climate, wet all year, Warm average temp.

Male B. tryoni are collected in very large numbers in cue lure traps, which will also trap B. neohumeralis in slightly lower numbers in most of its range (Osborne et al., 1997). Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel), is a highly polyphagous fruit fly which, in the last 15 years, has invaded (with or without establishment) Africa, Europe and North America. The trap used will usually be modelled on the Steiner trap (White and Elson-Harris, 1994) or Lynfield (pot) trap (Cowley et al., 1990).Field Monitoring The distribution of this species was mapped by Drew (1982) and IIE (1991).B. Paris, France: European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization. Combined with an insecticide it can be impregnated into small caneite blocks or other absorbent material. It is also adventive in French Polynesia (Austral and Society Islands) and New Caledonia and has twice been adventive in Easter Island, but eradicated (Bateman, 1982). Queensland fruit fly infests both indigenous and introduced fruits. In: Economic Fruit Flies of the South Pacific Region. Eggs are laid below the skin of the host fruit. Postpronotal (=humeral) lobe entirely pale (yellow or orange). It is a member of subgenus Bactrocera and can therefore sometimes be cited as Bactrocera (Bactrocera) tryoni. Citrus reunited. Many countries that are free of Bactrocera spp., such as the USA (California and Florida) and New Zealand, maintain a grid of methyl eugenol and cue lure traps, at least in high risk areas (ports and airports) if not around the entire climatically suitable area.

Using a field site located at the subtropical/temperate interface, with host fruits continuously available, we monitored the development times and abundance of B. tryoni, a species which has invaded temperate Australia from the tropics. Notopleuron with anterior seta. Economic Fruit Flies of the South Pacific Region. Fruit fly traps are being expanded in the area, including being placed in home gardens with fruit trees and additional traps added to an area extending to 1.5km from where the fly was found. (2019) found no evidence to support this statement and it has been removed. A fruit fly could have devastated New Zealand's horticulture industry if it hadn't been discovered at Auckland Airport, Biosecurity NZ says.

To watch my first large crop being spoilt is really depressing. It is capable of passing through seven generations a year in the northern part of its range but in East Gippsland there is only one generation per year. It has the potential to spread to many places around the world because of its wide climatic and host range (Meats 1989b; Sutherst et al., 2000) and a tendency to be carried by human travellers at the larval stage inside infested fruit. Damage levels can be anything up to 100% of unprotected fruit. In: IPPC Official Pest Report, Rome, Italy: FAO. Generate a print friendly version containing only the sections you need. Larvae medium-sized, length 8.0-11.0 mm; width 1.2-1.5 mm. It is also invaded and established in New Caledonia, French Polynesia and Pitcairn Islands in the South Pacific (Leblanc et al. Wallingford, UK: CAB International, IIE, 1991. Monitoring is largely carried out by traps (as above) set in areas of infestation. The distribution in this summary table is based on all the information available. Fruit fly fauna in New Caledonia. As a direct result of these invasions, there is increasing research interest in the invasion history and spread patterns of this fly. here in San Diego trapped one back in the 80's here in San Diego, it is still the most unusual one they have come across, we get the occasional Guava, Oriental, Mediterranean and Mexican fruit fly, but the Barrel-shaped with most larval features unrecognisable, the exception being the anterior and posterior spiracles which are little changed by pupariation.

Ecological studies of eastern Australian fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) in their endemic habitat. Of these, only Fopius arisanus became established, and although it reduced the number of flies per fruit it had little effect on the percentage of fruits damaged (Waterhouse, 1993).Regulatory Control Fruits (Paris), 63(4):209-217. http://www.fruits-journal.org/, Vijaysegaran S, 1997.
