Ranganath et al. 1994 Bactrocera dorsalis A was collected for the first time from the isl<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong> North,<br />

Middle <strong>and</strong> South Andaman on guava <strong>and</strong> mango. B. dorsalis A was also found on<br />

Terminalia procera, T. manii, Artocarpus sp. <strong>and</strong> Syzygium sp. in South Andaman. It<br />

was not found on carambola [Averrhoa carambola].<br />

Ranganath et al. 1995 A survey <strong>of</strong> the fruit fly fauna in the Andaman <strong>and</strong> Nicobar Isl<strong>and</strong>s revealed 11<br />

species belonging to the genus Bactrocera. Three species reared, one each from<br />

Spondias pinnata <strong>and</strong> Strychnos <strong>and</strong>amanensis, <strong>and</strong> one from S. <strong>and</strong>amanensis<br />

<strong>and</strong> several cucurbits, are probably new to science.<br />

Ranganath et al. 1996 Bactrocera albistrigata was collected for the first time in September 1991 in N.<br />

Nicobar Isl<strong>and</strong>s from a heavily infested guava crop.<br />

Ranganath et al. 1996 B. cucurbitae was recently recorded infesting tomato in South Andaman.<br />

Ranganath et al. 1997 Papaya [pawpaw] was recorded as a new host for Bactrocera carambolae in South<br />

Andaman, India. The most infested fruit contained 32 larvae.<br />

Ranganath et al. 1999 In the second part <strong>of</strong> the ongoing survey <strong>of</strong> the fruit fly fauna <strong>of</strong> the Andaman <strong>and</strong><br />

Nicobar isl<strong>and</strong>s (June 1993 to January 1996), 6 species <strong>of</strong> dacines belonging to the<br />

genus Bactrocera are added. B. (Bulladacus) mcgregori was reared from Gnetum<br />

gnemon, B. (Gymnodacus) calophylli was reared from Calophyllum inophyllum,<br />

while B. (Bactrocera) sp. nr. latilineola <strong>and</strong> B. (Zeugodacus) incisa were obtained by<br />

trapping. Of the two undescribed species recorded, one was reared from Momordica<br />

cochinchinensis <strong>and</strong> Trichosanthes tricuspidata (Cucurbitaceae) <strong>and</strong> the other was<br />

caught in methyl eugenol traps. Additional host records <strong>of</strong> B. (Bactrocera)<br />

carambolae (Polyalthia longifolia <strong>and</strong> Fagraea racemosa) <strong>and</strong> B. (Bactrocera)<br />

albistrigata (Syzygium spp. including cloves, Scolopia spinosa, P. longifolia, C.<br />

inophyllum, Guettarda speciosa <strong>and</strong> Aglaia argentea) were identified. B. albistrigiata<br />

was found seriously to attack guavas on Great Nicobar Isl<strong>and</strong>.<br />
