Abstract
Este trabalho foi realizado com o intuito de avaliar a infestação de frutos de Eugenia stipitata McVaugh (Myrtaceae) por moscas frugívoras no estado do Amapá, Brasil. Exatamente 95% dos frutos verdes e maduros apresentaram infestação. Porém, a infestação (pupários/fruto) foi maior em frutos maduros que em frutos verdes. Foram obtidas quatro espécies de Tephritidae e quatro de Lonchaeidae. Bactrocera carambolae (Tephritidae) predominou em frutos maduros. Não houve diferença na infestação por Anastrepha spp. (Tephritidae) e Neosilba spp. (Lonchaeidae) entre frutos verdes e maduros.

This work was carried out to evaluate the infestation of fruits of Eugenia stipitata McVaugh (Myrtaceae) by fruit lies in the state of Amapá, Brazil
There was no difference in infestation by Anastrepha spp. (Tephritidae) and Neosilba spp. (Lonchaeidae) between green and ripe fruits
