Development and evaluation of pupal color-based genetic sexing strains in Anastrepha obliqua (Diptera: Tephritidae). [PDF]
Two spontaneous mutations in pupae of the West Indian fruit fly Anastrepha obliqua, named bp and sp, were isolated and studied. The bp mutation was selected, and using two types of Y‐autosoma l translocation inducers and an appropriate crossing scheme, two genetically sexed strains based on pupa l color were developed for the first time in this species,

South American Fruit Fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Insecta: Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]
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.

Behavioural and Electrophysiological Response of Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) to a γ-Lactone Synthetic Semiochemical. [PDF]
Attractants are a powerful tool for pest management. The lack of specific attractants for the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus, a complex of cryptic species of great economic importance in South America, makes it difficult to monitor the pest in the field.

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

Current knowledge of the species complex Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera, Tephritidae) in Brazil. [PDF]
The study of the species complex Anastrepha fraterculus (Af complex) in Brazil is especially important in a taxonomical, evolutionary and pest management context, because there are evidences that some of them may occur in sympatry. In this review, we analyzed the main results supporting evidences that three cryptic species occur in Brazil.
