Abstract

Diptera belonging to four different families, as well as four associated parasitoids were reared from fruits of Inga vera Willd. (Fabaceae) in Lavras, Minas Gerais, southeast Brazil. We collected 450 fruits from five trees of I. vera between 2020 and 2021 in various localities situated within the University Federal of Lavras. We reared specimens belonging to four different dipteran families: Anastrepha distincta Greene (Tephritidae), Asteromyia sp. (Cecidomyiidae), Drosophila zottii Vilela (Drosophilidae), and Neosilba pendula (Bezzi) (Lonchaeidae). Lopheucoilasp.(Hymenoptera: Figitidae) probably is a parasitoid of N. pendulawhereas Eupelmus sp. (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae), and two species of Sycophila (Hymenoptera, Eurytomidae) appear to be parasitoids of Asteromyia sp.. We additionally conducted molecular characterization using the DNA barcoding locus for the majority of the species reared in this study. This study provides valuable insights into the biology and ecology of frugivorous flies in Brazil, and sheds light on potential biological control agents, enabling better management practices.
