Intraspecific Larval Competition in the Olive Fruit Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]

Environmental Entomology, 2009
Olive fruit flies [Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin)] occur at densities in California that can result in intraspecific larval competition within infested fruit. Larval B. oleae densities tracked in the field at six location were found to be highly variable and related to the proportion of fruit infested and adult densities.

Case Study 1: Olive Fruit Fly (Bactrocera oleae) [PDF]

, 2020
The olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae is a phytophagous insect associated to olive trees (Olea europaea, Oleaceae). Its larvae monophagously feed on olive fruits, the fly is therefore considered the most severe pest of olive cultivation causing tremendous economic losses.
