Validación de trampas caseras y atrayentes naturales para el manejo integrado de mosca de la fruta en la parroquia El Tambo.

Given the high costs and lack of availability of the typical traps and commercial attractants in our country for the integrated management of fruit flies (Diptera:Tephritidae), this research was carried out in the Indiucho neighborhood, Catamayo canton, Loja province; the main fruit species present were: mango, orange, tangerine, guava, sapote, among others. The field phase lasted five months, starting on 23/12/2017 and ending on 22/5/2018, in which 20 weekly samples were taken. For this investigation, three types of homemade traps based on plastic bottles were evaluated in comparison with the McPhail trap, and four natural attractants (urea, pineapple, guava and orange) with respect to hydrolyzed protein. A random block design was used in a bifactorial arrangement with 20 treatments and 4 replicates. The treatments consisted of the combination of traps and attractants and their efficacy was determined by the number of captures. For the laboratory phase, the captured specimens were counted and identified, and the structures of taxonomic interest of each species were measured and photographed. The results of the investigation revealed that the homemade trap 1 and homemade trap 2 were better than the McPhail trap in fruit fly capture, while, in the attractants, the hydrolyzed protein showed a slight predominance over urea and orange. Twelve species of fruit flies belonging to the genera Anastrepha and Ceratitis were reported. On the other hand, the economic analysis determined that the most economical trap was the homemade trap 1 with 25 ctvs/unit and the most economical attractant was urea with 4.8 ctvs per trap. Key words: Teprhitidae, homemade traps, natural attractants, Anastrepha.
