Abstract
Studies on fruit fly species are incipient in the Mato Grosso state. To obtain data on fruit flies, their host plants and parasitoids in this Brazilian state, samplings were carried out in 11 municipalities, in two periods (October to November 2018 and February to October 2019). The collections were carried out in traps and in fruits from several commercial sites. Nine species of Anastrepha were collected, in addition to Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann, 1824) and three species of parasitoids. Anastrepha bahiensis Lima, 1937, A. undosa Stone, 1942 and the parasitoid Opius bellus Gahan, 1930 are being recorded for the first time in the Mato Grosso state. Additionally, new host plant records are presented for 11 fruit fly species. This is the second survey of fruit flies carried out in a large area of the Mato Grosso state.
