This is the first record of Melanoloma viatrix Hendel as well as in its host (pineapple) in Brazil. Previously, M. viatrix had been found in pineapple plantations in Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador. In Brazil, this fly was initially reported in pineapple purchased from a commercial establishment in the municipality of Porto Grande, Amapá State, in 2020. Subsequently, M. viatrix was found in a commercial pineapple plantation, Ananas comosus (L.) Merr. cv. Pérola, also in Porto Grande, Amapá State. In the pineapple samples, 2,320 specimens of M. viatrix were collected on a single day on that rural property (approximately 2 ha). The larvae open galleries in the pulp that cause the pineapple to rot, making it unviable for consumption and commercial sale. This communication aims to alert phytosanitary authorities of the need to establish control strategies to prevent the spread of the pineapple fly to other states in Brazil.
这是在巴西首次记录到眼斑芫菁(Melanoloma viatrix Hendel)及其在宿主(菠萝)中的存在。此前,这种芫菁曾在秘鲁、哥伦比亚、委内瑞拉和厄瓜多尔的菠萝种植园中被发现。在巴西,这种蝇类最初是在 2020 年从亚马帕州格兰德港(Porto Grande)的一家商业机构购买的菠萝中报告的。随后,在亚马帕州格兰德港的一个商业菠萝种植园(Ananas comosus (L.) Merr. cv. Pérola)中也发现了眼斑芫菁。在菠萝样本中,在该农村财产(约 2 公顷)上的一天内就收集到了 2320 只眼斑芫菁的幼虫。幼虫在果肉中开辟坑道,导致菠萝腐烂,无法食用和商业销售。本报告旨在提醒植物检疫当局注意需要制定控制策略,以防止菠萝蝇传播到巴西其他州。
