Abstract
Central Bangka Regency is one of central orange production in Bangka Belitung Islands Province. One of the important pests of sweet orange plants is fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae). This research aimed to study the diversity of fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) on sweet orange plantations in Central Bangka Regency, Bangka Belitung Islands Province. The fruit flies were collected using Lynfield traps which installed in three villages producing sweet oranges in Central Bangka Regency. The types of attractants used to trap male fruit flies are methyl eugenol and cue lure. The fruit flies collected during the study were 4795 individuals, 3 genera, and 14 species. Fruit flies collected from the methyl eugenol were different compared to those collected using lure attractant trap. Most species (13 species) of fruit fly were found in Terentang village, and the rest was same (9 species). Bactrocera carambolae and B. dorsalis were the dominant fruit fly species in the three research locations.

Summary
Tanaman jeruk (Citrus spp.) merupakan tanaman asli benua Asia yang buahnya mengandung sumber vitamin C. Lalat buah (Diptera: Tephritidae) merupakan salah satu jenis hama yang sangat besar pengaruhnya bagi keberlangsungan produksi hortikultura komersial di negara tropis maupun subtropis (Vargas et al 2007). Salah satu ancaman pengembangan tanaman jeruk manis adalah serangan lalat buah dan hingga saat ini belum diketahui spesies lalat buah yang berasosiasi dengan tanaman jeruk di Bangka Tengah. Perbedaan penelitian ini dengan penelitian sebelumnya adalah perbedaan lokasi wilayah kabupaten dan jenis tanaman tempat dipasangkan perangkap atraktan lalat buah. Untuk mengetahuinya maka perlu dilakukan survei dengan pemasangan perangkap atraktan guna mendeteksi lalat buah yang berperan sebagai hama tanaman jeruk manis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keanekaragaman dan dominansi Lalat buah (Diptera: Tephritidae) di pertanaman jeruk manis di Kabupaten Bangka Tengah, Provinsi Kepulauan Bangka Belitung
