Abstract
New data on the distribution and host plants of nine species of Tephritidae are presented. Tephritis oedipus Hendel, 1927, T. hendeliana Hering, 1944 and Terellia uncinata White, 1989 are recorded for the first time from Transcaucasia. Urophora sirunaseva (Hering, 1938) is recorded for the first time from Armenia. New host plants are recorded for five species of tephritid flies: Centaurea polyphylla Ledeb. ex Nordm. and Amberboa glauca (Willd.) Grossh. for Acanthiophilus helianthi (Rossi, 1794), Lactuca orientalis (Boiss.) Boiss. for Hypenidium roborowskii (Becker, 1907), Reichardia dichotoma (DC.) Freyn for Trupanea amoena (Frauenfeld, 1857), Cladochaeta candidissima (M. Bieb.) DC. for Trupanea stellata (Fuessly, 1775), and Centaurea cheiranthifolia Willd. for Xyphosia laticauda (Meigen, 1826). The morphological details of all species of tephritid flies recorded here are illustrated in colour photos.
