ABSTRACT

Except for a few records from Roraima State, all records of the Anastrepha species are from Amazonas and Para. Hosts are unknown for approximately 60% of the Anastrepha species from the region, and, for about 30%, the distribution data refer to huge areas such as Amazon, Amazonia, Amazon River, Para. A list of the hosts of Anastrepha species was compiled by A. L. Norrbom & K. C. Kim. Hosts and distributions of Anastrepha species known from the Brazilian Amazon are summarized in the list that follows. Locales indicated under distribution in this list are solely from the Brazilian Amazon region; many species found there have wider distributions, but no attempt is made to describe that complete distribution. Twenty species found in the Brazilian Amazon are also found in other Brazilian regions and/or other countries. For eight of these species, no host from Brazilian Amazon is known.
