What Can Integrated Analysis of Morphological and Genetic Data Still Reveal about the Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) Cryptic Species Complex? [PDF]
The South American fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) is a complex of cryptic species, the so-called “Anastrepha fraterculus complex”, for which eight morphotypes are currently recognized.

New records of Anastrepha Schiner, 1868 (Diptera, Tephritidae) in an urban forest fragment in Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil [PDF]
Four new records of Anastrepha species, A. elongata Fernández, 1953, A. fraterculus (Wiedemann, 1830) (sensu lato), A. pseudanomala Norrbom, 2002, and A. sodalis Stone, 1942, are discussed. Anastrepha elongata is recorded for the first time in
