First Insights into the Intrapuparial Development of <i>Bactrocera dorsalis</i> (Hendel): Application in Predicting Emergence Time for Tephritid Fly Control

First Insights into the Intrapuparial Development of <i>Bactrocera dorsalis</i> (Hendel): Application in Predicting Emergence Time for Tephritid Fly Control

Intrapuparial development is a special pattern of metamorphosis in cyclorrhaphous flies, in which the pupa forms in an opaque, barrel-like puparium. This has been well studied in forensic insects for age estimations. In this study, the intrapuparial development of a quarantine agricultural pest, <...
