Ovipositional behaviour of two mango fruit fly species (Diptera Tephritidae) in relation to Oecophylla cues (Hymenoptera Formicidae) as compared to natural conditions without ant cues
The tritrophic interactions between mangoes (Mangifera indica), two frugivorous fly species of greateconomic significance, Bactrocera invadens and Ceratitis cosyra, and weaver ants (Oecophylla longinoda)were studied in Benin. We investigated whether Oecophylla cues affect B. invadens and C. cosyra o...
