HOSTS PLANTS AND PARASITOIDS (HYM., BRACONIDAE) OF ANASTREPHA SPP. (DIP., TEPHRITIDAE) IN ILHA DE SANTANA, AMAPÁ STATE, BRAZIL

ABSTRACT

This work was carried out to establish the association of the fruit flies species, their host plants and their parasitoids in Ilha de Santana, Amapá State, Brazil. Forty four samples from 13 vegetable species were collected, totalizing 4,177 fruits and 78,753 grams. The fruits were collected in 2005, from January to July, and from them 608 puparia were obtained, from which emerged 225 fruit flies of Anastrepha genus and 42 Braconidae parasitoids. Fruit flies emergence were only verified on Spondias mombin L., Psidium guajava L. and Pouteria caimito Radlk samples. The recorded species were A. obliqua Macquart, A. striata Schiner and A. leptozona Hendel. Three species of parasitoids emerged from samples of S. mombin and P. guajava: Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti), Opius sp. and Asobara anatrephae (Muesebeck).
