P. aBiology of Bactrocera carambolae (DipterabTephritidae) on four hosts.h[electronic resource] c2019 aBactrocera carambolae is a quarantine pest found in Brazil, restricted to the states of Amapá, Pará andRoraima. This fruit fly can potentially cause extensive socioeconomic and environmental damage in thecountry, if it disperse into areas where fruit is grown for exporting. The objective of this work was tostudy the biology of B. carambolae on fruits of Averrhoa carambola L. (Oxalidaceae), Psidium guajava L.(Myrtaceae), Spondias mombin L. (Anacardiaceae) and Eugenia stipitata McVaugh (Myrtaceae). The follow-ing parameters were investigated: duration of egg-larva, pupal, egg-adult, pre-oviposition, ovipositionand post-oviposition periods, pupal weight and viability, sex ratio, fecundity, fertility and longevity. Allparameters except pupal weight, oviposition and post-oviposition period, egg fertility and sex ratio wereinfluenced by the host plant on which the larvae were reared. The carambola fruit fly completes itsdevelopment on all those hosts studied here, with the highest fecundities on A. carambola and P. guajava. aFruit flies aMosca das Frutas aPraga de Planta aPraga Quarentenária aCarambola fruit fly aInsect aQuarantine pest1 aPASINATO, J.1 aSANTOS, J.
