Ceratitis capitata

General information

Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann, 1824) is an insect of the order Diptera belonging to the Tephritidae family. It is originated in the West Coast of Africa, where it lives together with other similar species. It has spread from there to other mild, subtropical and tropical zones in both hemispheres. It is considered a cosmopolitan species because it can be found in many places due to the fact that it travels with the products transported by human.

In spite of its origin, it is also called Mediterranean fruit fly because of its devastating economic effect on Mediterranean countries. It affects many crops, especially citrus plants, as well as pip and stone fruit trees.

In Spain, this pest spreads throughout the Southern and Mediterranean regions, reaching optimal conditions in the regions situated more inland.

It is a highly polyphagous insect that attacks all types of fruit. The larvae live inside the fruit and prefer those that have the most sweet and fleshy pulp such as the peach, but they also damage figs, apricots, oranges, mandarins, persimmons, grapes, pears, pomegranates, mangos, custard apples, papayas, loquats, plums, quinces, etc.

TYPES OF FRUITS

It can produce several generations every year, depending on the climate of the area. During the cold season, they live on the ground in pupal stage. In areas with a mild climate, it can produce up to 7 or 8 generations.


Morphology and biology

Adult: It has vibrant colours such as yellow, white and black. Its size is smaller than that of housefly (4-5 mm long). It has large iridescent green eyes. Its thorax is grey with black spots and long hairs. Its abdomen is tawny with yellow and grey dorsal bands. Its legs are yellowish and its wings are iridescent, with several greyish, yellow and black spots.

The female has a conical abdomen ending in a strong ovipositor in which has black and yellow sensorial bands . The male, being somewhat smaller, has two long bands on the forehead that culminate in a black rhomboidal palate.

Egg: Egg-shaped. Recently laid, it is white, long and slightly curved but then turns yellowish. Its average size is 1 x 0.2 mm. Its surface which is smooth at a glance, shows a micro-reticulum of hexagonal mesh.

Larva: It is small, whitish and apodous with the frontal part situated at the extreme end of the body while the posterior part is wider and shorter. After moulting twice, it reaches its complete growth by looking white or yellow with cream, orange or reddish spots due to the presence of food inside it. Its size is 9 x 2 mm.

Pupa: By completing the last moult, the exoskeleton changes into a protective cover in the shape of a small chestnut-coloured barrel. On the inside, it develops several transformations of its body that will conclude with the adult phase. When the insect emerges (between 6 to 15 days) it splits the puparium open on one of the sides.

According to Gómez-Clemente, it can have the following cycle in the Mediterranean regions:

In winter, the first generation of female adults appears and attacks oranges and clementines, looking for the sunniest branches. The mature fruits are more vulnerable. All citrus fruits are exposed to its attacks, but the thickness and the texture of the peel, as well as the density of the essential oils’ glands, play an important role in their immunity, as is the case with the lemon.

They fly over the fruits looking for the right place. Colour and scent are two relevant aspects when selecting a place to lay their eggs (they prefer yellow and orange).

Oranges and yellow red

They lay their eggs in groups of 5 to 10. The total number of eggs for each female can range from 300 to 400. Entering inside the fruit, the larvae feed on the pulp. The rotten fruits fall to the ground and the larvae emerges from the inside of the fruit by pupating underground at a depth of 5-10 cm. In spring, a second generation appears and affects apricots. At the beginning of summer, there is a third generation that affects peaches.

In August and September, a fourth and fifth generation affects peaches, pears, figs, persimmons and grapes. The Ceratitis Capitata also begins to bite oranges and mandarins that are still green.

Later on, there is a sixth generation that attacks late fruits, such as oranges and mandarins. If the temperature is mild, there could be other generations.

Activity is reduced in winter but when temperature rises above 14 oC, the flies become active again.

Damages

The female fly lays (up to 10 eggs) by introducing her ovipositor into the fruits when they begin to ripen. The wound is an entrance for the microorganisms that begin the rotting process of the fruit. Moreover, the larvae excavate galleries inside the fruit, increasing the decomposition and causing the fruit to fall to the ground.

When the larvae feed on the pulp, they favour the processes of oxidation and the premature ripening of the fruit. This causes the fruit to rot, making it unsaleable at the market.

When the fruits fall to the ground, this causes great inconvenience because the fly begins its cycle in the fruit again, multiplying the population of the pest very quickly.

Another important focal point for the fruit fly is the mature and sweet fruits that remain unpicked in the trees after the fruit picking season because of economic or commercial reasons.

ECONEX CERATITIS CAPITATA 90 DAYS

ECONEX CERATITIS CAPITATA 90 DAYS pheromone diffuser and packaging of the product
(Code: UIPHOVA001)

The diffuser contains 2 g of Trimedlure and consists of a cylinder of compact polyester fibres impregnated with the attractant. It lasts 90 days in normal field conditions

It is individually packaged in an aluminium sachet with labelled specifications

Once taken out of the packaging, the diffuser needs no activation, just placed it properly in the trap.


Detection and monitoring

Place from 1 to 2 traps per hectare, on the south side of the trees and at a height of 1.5 to 2 metres, for the detection and monitoring of the fruit fly populations.

The installation of the traps should be approximately between 1 and 3 months before harvesting the crops


Mass trapping

Males of this species are captured in order to reduce mating, meaning that the unfertilised females will lay unviable eggs. In this way, the pest population is reduced.

For this purpose, the number of traps per surface area must be increased, according to the location and uniformity of the plots. A trap controls a surface area between 500 and 1.000 m2. This means a density of 10 to 20 traps per hectare placed on the south side of the trees at a height of 1.5 to 2 metres.

On the borders of the plots, it will be necessary to place a barrier of traps separated 10 to 15 metres apart from each other.

Period of use

To ensure an efficient control of the Mediterranean fruit fly it is advisable to combine two methods: detection and monitoring; and mass trapping.

In spring, 1 to 2 traps per hectare can be placed for the detection of the pest and the control of its population levels.

Through tolerance thresholds established in each area, the moment to adopt control measures is later defined, in this case mass trapping. The tolerance threshold for Ceratitis capitata is very low and varies according to the area and type of traps used. In general, captures per trap and per day are between 0.5 and 3.


Necessary material

We can use the following traps: ECONEX BOTTLE TRAP, INVAGINATED EOSTRAP®, INVAGINATED EOSTRAP®ORANGE LID, ECONEX MOSQUERO, ECONEX FOLDING WHITE TRIANGULAR WITHOUT SHEETS, ECONEX DISPOSABLE WHITE TRIANGULAR , ECONEX JACKSON TRAP SUPER (12X12X18 CM) o ECONEX YELLOW CHROMATIC 40 X 25 CM 1 UNIT PACK.

The ECONEX BOTTLE TRAP is a bottle-shaped disposable trap with a capacity of 1 litre and made of PET. It has 4 diagonal holes with yellow polypropylene inserts that have truncated cone shape. These inserts make it easier for the target insects to enter the trap, both by chromotropic attraction as well as its funnel shape, also preventing their exit. It is a versatile and economical trap, optimised for its use in attraction and capture, by filling it with the appropriate attractant (not included) for the fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata).

The INVAGINATED EOSTRAP® and ECONEX MOSQUERO traps are more appropriate than the ECONEX TRIANGULAR and ECONEX JACKSON SUPER traps for mass trapping. Regarding the INVAGINATED EOSTRAP ® and the ECONEX MOSQUERO traps, it is recommendable to use them together a substance capable of killing or retaining the captured insects inside the traps, for example olive oil. These traps stand out for their large capacity to capture insects and for their suitability to capture insects and keep them intact, which allows a better morphological study of them.

In the ECONEX MOSQUERO a small cage is placed as an accessory for placing the diffuser. However, in the INVAGINATED EOSTRAP® it is not necessary, as the diffuser is placed in a retractable clip in the upper inside of the lid. Both traps can be combined with a food attractant, whose use is permitted in Organic Farming

The ECONEX FOLDING WHITE TRIANGULAR WITHOUT SHEETS trap is activated by placing an ECONEX SHEET FOR TRIANGULAR 1 UNIT on the base. The sheet is impregnated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, solvent free, in which the insects are trapped.

The ECONEX JACKSON TRAP SUPER (12X12X18 CM) includes an adhesive sheet impregnated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, solvent free, in which the insects are trapped.

The ECONEX YELLOW CHROMATIC 40 X 25 CM trap is an adhesive trap. It is a yellow polythene sheet, resistant to sunlight, of 1000 cm2 (40 x 25 cm) and with a 2×2 cm black grid on both sides. The sheet is covered on both sides with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, solvent free, which is protected by a translucent, silicone paper. There is a margin of 1 cm on the longer sides of the sheet that does not contain the adhesive to facilitate its handling. It has a hole in each corner to make its installation easier.

The traps ECONEX FOLDING WHITE TRIANGULAR without sheets, ECONEX DISPOSABLE WHITE TRIANGULAR, ECONEX JACKSON TRAP SUPER (12X12X18 CM) y ECONEX YELLOW CHROMATIC 40 X 25 CM stand out above all the rest because of their simplicity of use. Moreover, they work until the pheromone runs out or the adhesive sheet becomes saturated. However, they are less recommended in areas with lots of dust in the air.


Factors that influence the number of traps needed

The pest population, the bordering crops, the level of control required, etc..

An important factor is the size of the crops. In small and irregular crops, a greater number of traps are required than in larger and more uniform ones.

Another important factor is the distance between plots that have Ceratitis capitata. In these cases, the borders of the plots must be reinforced, so it could be necessary to place up to 20 traps per hectare or even more for mass trapping.


PRODUCT STORAGE

The diffusers must be stored in their original packaging without opening them and in the refrigerator at 4 oC; or in the freezer at -18 oC, in which case they will last for 2 and 4 years respectively.

ECONEX LEARNING CENTER

ECONEX puts at your disposal the first open knowledge center that brings together everything necessary to implement pest biocontrol in your crops. We have developed different types of resources to share with you the knowledge we have acquired during our more than 38 years of experience. Each of them is designed to respond, in the best possible way, to different questions related to pheromones, attractants, repellents and insect traps.
