Biology. Adults mate at dusk, starting 11 days after emergence (Arakaki et al. 1984). In Hawaii, at 24 ° C, eggs hatch in 1.8 days, larval development takes 7.9 days and the pupal stage lasts 12.6 days (Vargas et al. 1996). Monthly trapping data published in Leblanc et al. (2014) and illustrated on Figure 109. The parasitoids Fopius arisanus (Sonan) and Diachasminorpha longicaudata (Ashmead) were introduced to Hawaii in 1948 to control B. dorsalis. Both parasitoids were introduced to French Polynesia in 2003 to control the same target pest (Vargas et al. 2007, 2012 a, 2012 b; Leblanc et al. 2013 b). Fopius arisanus was also bred from B. dorsalis and B. frauenfeldi in Palau, believed to have been introduced several decades earlier to control B. frauenfeldi (Leblanc et al. 2015). Notes. Heat tolerance of immature stages studied in Hawaii (Jang 1986, 1991). This species’ presence in Palau was confirmed by R. A. I. Drew in 1996, who originally identified it as B. dorsalis (Leblanc 1997). He later rectified the determination as B. philippinensis Drew and Hancock and B. occipitalis (Bezzi), both members of the B. dorsalis complex, based on specimens bred from host fruit in Palau in 2001 (SPC, 2001). A decade later, Drew re-examined the reared specimens and further rectified the identification as B. papayae Drew and Hancock (Leblanc et al. 2012; Drew and Romig 2013). The species identity in Palau reverted to B. dorsalis again, consequent to the designation of B. papayae as junior synonym of B. dorsalis (Schutze et al. 2015), and the absence of B. occipitalis was confirmed by more recent trapping surveys and host fruit rearing in Palau (Leblanc et al. 2015). Although not all taxonomists agree with the broader species concept of B. dorsalis and regard the introduced Palau and New Guinea populations as B. papayae (e. g., Drew and Romig 2016, 2022), divergent views on species identity will not affect the approach used in controlling this severe fruit pest (Vargas et al., 2015). Oriental fruit fly was eradicated by male annihilation from the Marianas Islands in 1965 (Steiner et al. 1965 a, 1965 b, 1970) and Nauru in 2000 (Allwood et al. 2002). Unsuccessful eradication attempts in French Polynesia were followed by the introduction in 2003 of the parasitoid Fopius arisanus (Sonan) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) from Hawaii, which notably reduced the overall population (Vargas et al. 2007, 2012 a, 2012 b; Leblanc et al. 2013 b). It was detected and promptly eradicated from the Cook Islands (Rarotonga and Aitutaki) in 2013 (Vargas et al. 2014).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Biology. Adults mate during the day (Allwood 1997). Rate of development was studied on papaya-based diet, at 26 ° C, by Leblanc and Hollingsworth (1997). One female can lay an average of at least 25 eggs in 24 hours. Egg incubation lasts about two days. Almost all larvae go through the first instar between 48 and 72 hours after egg laying. Between 96 and 108 hours, over 90 % have reached the second instar in Micronesia (FSM) (68 and 80 hours in Solomon Islands). Third instars appear 120 hours after egg laying and nearly 90 % have reached this stage by 192 hours in FSM, but appeared (92 hours) and matured (128 hours) earlier in the Solomon Islands. By 204 hours, mature larvae start to exit the diet to pupate and the largest numbers of larvae have exited at 252 hours. Larval development and pupal stage duration is 11 days. This species is very common in village situations, even on remote atolls, where host trees abound, and is much less common in rainforest. Monthly trapping data are illustrated on Figures 113 and 114, and were previously published in Leblanc and Allwood (1997) and Vagalo et al. (1997). This species is particularly abundant on Pohnpei and Kosrae Islands (Federated States of Micronesia), sustained by the high rainfall and abundant host fruit availability throughout the year (Fig. 113) (Leblanc and Allwood 1997). Although ubiquitous in the wet tropics, it is unlikely to become a pest outside tropical zones that have even wet hot climates throughout the year (Royer et al. 2015). The parasitoids Fopius arisanus and Diachasmimorpha longicaudata were introduced and released in 1997 on Pohnpei and Kosrae Islands, respectively, in an attempt to reduce the very large populations of B. frauenfeldi to manageable levels (Vargas et al. 2012). Host suitability was demonstrated for both parasitoids in laboratory tests and F. arisanus was recovered in host fruit surveys in subsequent years. It is not known whether either parasitoid has become permanently established. Notes. Attempts to eradicate this species from Nauru between 1998 and 2001, using male annihilation and limited protein bait sprays, were unsuccessful (Allwood et al. 2002). This species is the main member of the B. frauenfeldi complex, which also includes B. caledoniensis, B. parafrauenfeldi Drew, B. trilineola and the phylogenetically closely related B. kirki and B. psidii (Doorenweerd et al. 2022).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Until fresh specimens from Santa Cruz are available for molecular comparison, I tentatively assigned the Kolombangara specimens as a variant of B. hollingsworthi, rather than describe them as a new species (Leblanc et al. 2021).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Category A fruit pest (Vargas et al. 2015) recorded from 59 host taxa in 25 genera and 13 families (Allwood et al. 1999; McQuate and Liquido 2016). The family Solanaceae contains the major host species and B. latifrons is a significant pest of Capsicum and Solanum species (Drew and Romig 2013). Biology. Adults mate at dusk (Jackson and Long 1997). In Hawaii, at 24 ° C, eggs hatch in 3.2 days, larval development takes 9.0 days and pupal stage lasts 13.0 days (Vargas et al. 1996). Notes. Variants of this species, with extensive dark coloration on the abdomen and bases of femora, have been characterized and illustrated in Doorenweerd and Leblanc (2018). The trilobed aculeus (Fig. 98 in Drew and Romig 2013) is characteristic.

This was the first species to be described from Oceania, the earliest use of the generic name Bactrocera, published by Macquart (1835), and the second dacine fly species described, preceded only by the description of Musca oleae Rossi, 1790 (now known as Bacrocera oleae). This historic species description is reproduced on Figure 2. Former New Ireland and Bougainville records of B. longicornis actually are of B. denigrata (Drew, 1971), declared a junior synonym of B. longicornis by Hardy (1976) and reinstated as a valid species by Drew and Romig (2022), based on the examination of specimens collected in East New Britain by the author of this publication, among which the one on Figure 42. The differences between the two species are outlined in Drew and Romig (2022). No additional specimens of B. longicornis have been collected in the Solomon Islands, other than Macquart’s original holotype.	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Biology. Adults mate between late morning and early afternoon, with increasing light intensity (Allwood 1997). Rate of development was studied by Kassim (1993). At 27 ° C in papaya, egg hatch starts after 36 hours, 79 % of larvae have reached second instar by 72 hours, 88 % reached third instar by 120 hours, larval popping starts by 156 hours, and 88 % have exited host by 168 hours. Adult longevity is 30 weeks under lab conditions. Oviposition starts after three weeks and peaks during weeks 6 to 9, and a female lays 318 eggs over 126 days. This species is more common inland than in coastal areas, unlike B. xanthodes, and population peaks occur in the cooler months of June and July (Leweniqila et al. 1997 b; Purea et al. 1997).

This species is a non-pest member species of the Bactrocera xanthodes complex (Drew et al. 1997). Drew (1989) originally recorded it as B. xanthodes in Vanuatu. Based on its unusual host record, Waterhouse (1993) suspected it might be a separate species, later confirmed by Hoeben et al. (1996) and Drew et al. (1997), who initially included it under B. paraxanthodes (Drew and Hancock 1995), and later described it as B. neoxanthodes (Drew and Romig 2001).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Three specimens in the University of Hawaii Insect Museum, reportedly collected by John Kjargaard on Molokai Island (Hawaii) in 1972 (Anonymous 1993), were examined by the author and confirmed to belong to this species. I treat this record as highly dubious because specimens were never collected in cue-lure traps in subsequent years. Further, Hardy (1989 a) referred to these specimens as “ Three specimens of an apparently new species ... collected in the early 1970 ’ s by John Kjargaard, recently turned up in a pill box in the collecting bag loaned to Mr. Kjargaard by Dr. Mitchell many years ago. ” It is plausible, and more likely in my opinion, that samples from the Mariana Islands may have been misplaced in the bag or pill box during those years.	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Biology. Adults mate at dusk (Allwood et al. 1997). Rate of development studied in laboratory by Leweniqila et al. (1997 a). Egg hatch begins at 36 hours and is complete by 48 hours. Pupation occurs 192 - 240 hours after egg laying in papaya-based diet, i. e., pupation begins at day 8 and adult eclosion begins at day 20 after oviposition. Larval development slightly longer when reared on zucchini-based diet (Leweniqila et al. 1997 a). This species is present both in forest and orchard habitats, with more pronounced seasonality in forest, with peak in Feb-May, and less clear seasonal trends in orchards (Leweniqila et al. 1997 b). Monthly trapping data illustrated on Figure 123 and published in Tora Vueti et al. (1997 c). This species is parasitized by Fopius arisanus and Diachasmimorpha longicaudata in Fiji (Vargas et al. 2012 a). Notes. Specimens in Fiji have uniformly black abdomen, while populations in Tonga (Niuas group), Tuvalu and Tokelau have extensive pale markings on the abdomen (Fig. 63) and have been treated as a likely new species close to B. passiflorae by Drew and Hancock (1995). Specimens collected by the author on Wallis in 2019, traditionally recognized as B. passiflorae on Wallis and Futuna, have moderate pale markings on the abdomen (Fig. 62 d). Extensive sampling throughout the range of these populations and molecular characterizations are required to resolve the status of this species, and its relationship with B. samoae.

Biology. Adults mate during the day (Mille 2010). Under laboratory conditions, eggs hatch after 2.25 days, larval development takes about 10 days and pupal stage lasts nine days (Mille 2010). This species is most commonly trapped in rural areas and rainforest, rather than in village and suburban environments, unlike B. tryoni and B. curvipennis (Amice and Sales 1997 a). Monthly trapping data illustrated on Figure 125. Notes. Heat tolerance of immature stages was investigated in New Caledonia (Sales et al. 1997 a).

Biology. Adults start mating 11 days after emergence, and mate between late morning and early afternoon at the peak of light intensity (Allwood 1997). The life cycle is completed in approximately 21 – 22 days at 25 ° C on artificial diet (Allwood et al. 1997). Populations peak in January – February and April – May, which coincides with the fruiting seasons of mangoes and guavas, respectively (Allwood et al. 1997). Monthly trapping data illustrated on Figure 128. Notes. This species was detected in New Caledonia, on Maré Island in 1993 and Lifou Island in 2000 (Mille 2008). Species identity was further confirmed by genetic analysis on specimens collected by the author on Maré in 2019 (Doorenweerd et al. 2022).

Biology. Adults mate at dusk (Allwood 1997). Under laboratory conditions, eggs hatch after 1.75 days and larval development takes about nine days (Mille 2010). After its establishment in New Caledonia, B. tryoni displaced the native polyphagous fruit pests B. psidii and especially B. curvipennis, which formerly was the dominant species (Cochereau 1970; Amice and Sales 1997 a, 1997 b). Bactrocera tryoni is now the dominant species in urban and village and orchard areas, while B. psidii remains the dominant species in forest (Amice and Sales 1997 a, 1997 b). Monthly trapping data illustrated on Figure 130. Notes. Heat tolerance of immature stages was investigated in New Caledonia (Sales et al. 1997). This species was promptly eradicated, with application of male annihilation, protein bait sprays and crop sanitation, after its 2001 detection in Rarotonga (Cook Islands) (Vargas et al. 2014).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

Biology. Adults mate at dusk (Allwood 1997). Rate of development was studied by Kassim (1993). At 27 ° C in papaya, egg hatch starts after 36 hours, 40 % of larvae have reached second instar by 72 hours, and 76 % have reached third instar by 120 hours. Larval popping starts at 156 hours, and 67 % have pupated by 168 hours. Adult longevity is 21 weeks under laboratory conditions. A female lays on average 143 eggs over 112 days, starting two weeks after emergence, with egg laying peak egg laying at weeks 9 to 12. Pacific fruit fly is commonly found in the village, suburban and coastal environments, where breadfruit and mango are common, and is absent in forest habitats (Leweniqila et al. 1997 b). Monthly trapping data is illustrated on Figures 133, 134, and was published in Litsinger et al. (1991), Leweniqila et al. (1997 b), and Tora Vueti et al. (1997 c). This species is parasitized by Fopius arisanus in the Cook Islands, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa, and also by Diachasmimorpha longicaudata in Fiji (Vargas et al. 2012 a). Notes. Heat tolerance was studied in Fiji, Tonga, Samoa and Cook Islands (Foliaki and Armstrong 1997; Tora Vueti et al. 1997 b; Waddell et al. 1997 a; Tunupopo et al. 2019). It is less heat tolerant than B. passiflorae, B. facialis, B. kirki and B. melanotus. The eradication of this species in Nauru took a lot longer than initially expected, in great part due to weak attraction to methyl eugenol (Allwood et al. 2002). Methyl-isoeugenol, a more potent attractant than methyl eugenol for this species, should preferably be used for monitoring, control and eradication of B. xanthodes (Royer et al. 2019 b).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

This species was originally described as Dacus (Asiadacus) perpusillus Drew, 1971 and later reassigned as Bactrocera (Sinodacus) perpusilla (Drew) by Drew (1989). More recently, it was transferred to genus Zeugodacus, as Z. (Sinodacus) perpusillus (Drew) (DeMeyer et al. 2015; Doorenweerd et al. 2018) or treated as Bactrocera (Parasinodacus) perpusilla (Drew) by Hancock and Drew (2017 b). A close morphological examination of fresh specimens collected by the author in New Caledonia in 2019 clearly shows that this species belongs to genus Dacus and subgenus Neodacus, as defined by Drew and Romig (2013, 2022), further confirmed by genetic data (Doorenweerd et al. 2020). I am therefore reassigning this species as Dacus (Neodacus) perpusillus Drew.	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.

03D4F45500A443B841BECEC22D703C6F.taxon	biology_ecology	Host plants. Category A severe pest of cucurbit crops (Vargas et al. 2015), also bred from a diversity of other families, with a total of 136 host taxa in 30 families (Allwood et al. 1999; McQuate et al. 2016). Records in Guam, Nauru, Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, and Solomon Islands: CUCURBITACEAE: Citrullus lanatus, Coccinia grandis, Cucumis sativus, Cucurbita pepo, Luffa acutangula, L. cylindrica, Momordica charantia, Trichosanthes cucumerina. FABACEAE: Phaseolus vulgaris, Vigna unguiculata. MALVACEAE: Abelmoschus esculentus. SOLANACEAE: Solanum lycopersicum. Edible hosts common names. Angled luffa, bittergourd, common bean, cucumber, ivy gourd, luffa, okra, snakebean, snakegourd, squash, tomato, watermelon. Biology. Adults mate at dusk (Waterhouse 1993). Rate of development was summarized by Waterhouse (1993). Female flies start laying eggs, primarily on cucurbits, 11 – 12 days after their emergence from pupae. Eggs are laid in batches of 1 – 40 eggs in young to ripe fruits, but also on flowers, buds and even leaf stalks and stems of host cucurbits. One female may lay over 1000 eggs during her life. Oviposition peaks occur in the morning and late afternoon. Eggs hatch in about 24 hours. Development time varies from 4 to 17 days (larva) and 7 to 13 days (pupa), depending on temperature and host. In the Solomon Islands, development from egg to adult takes 13 days at 29 ° C. In Hawaii, at 24 ° C, eggs hatch in 1.3 days, larval development takes 6.6 days and pupal stage lasts 10.2 days (Vargas et al. 1996). Adults are long-lived, typically up to 150 days, but as long as 240 – 460 days under cooler temperature. This species is uncommon in the forest. Monthly trapping data is illustrated on Figures 137, 138, and was also published in Hollingsworth et al. (1997). The parasitoid Psyttalia fletcheri (Silvestri) was introduced from India to Hawaii in 1916, and subsequently from Hawaii to the Mariana Islands in 1950 (Waterhouse 1993) and the Solomon Islands in 1997 (Hollingsworth 2003). Notes. Heat tolerance was studied in Hawaii (Jang 1986). Melon fly was eradicated from the Northern Mariana Islands in 1963 through sterile insect releases (Steiner et al. 1965 a), but re-introduced from Guam in 1981 (Wong et al. 1989). It was first detected in the Solomon Islands on Shortland in 1984, then Kolombangara, Choiseul and Gizo in 1985, Isabel in 1988, Malaita in 1994, and Guadalcanal in 1995, where initial attempts for eradication were unsuccessful (Waterhouse 1993; Hollingsworth et al. 1997; Vagalo et al. 1997). It was also detected on Christmas Island (Kiribati) in 1987, and eradicated through a 2 - year interruption in cucurbit cultivation (Waterhouse 1993). It was easily eradicated from Nauru in 1998 – 1999, using male annihilation and limited protein bait spray applications, aided by a drought that had reduced host fruit availability (Allwood et al. 2002). It was, however, re-introduced to Nauru in 2002, likely aided by Air Nauru passenger flights from Guam (SPC 2002).	en	Leblanc, Luc (2022): The dacine fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacini) of Oceania.
