FIRST HOST PLANT RECORD FOR ANASTREPHA AMPLIATA HERNÁNDEZ-ORTIZ, 1990 (DIPTERA: TEPHRITIDAE)
Main Article Content
Abstract
The fruit flies of the Tephritidae family, represent one of the most important agricultural pests in the world, besides causing a great economic impact due to losses in a great diversity of fruits and other vegetables limit the development of agriculture in many countries and are the direct cause of a considerable number of quarantines and restrictions imposed by the importing countries, causing a detriment in the economy of fruits producing countries. However, in Mexico the knowledge of its hosts is generally restricted to Anastrepha species of economic importance, while studies on the relationship of other species of this genus with their host plants are poorly understood.
