The Lonchaeidae family belongs to the superfamily Tephritoidea, records for the Neotropics the genera: Lonchaea Fallen 1820, McAlpine Neosilba McAlpine 1982 and Dasiops Rondani 1856 (Korytkowski and Ojeda, 1971). The latter, of cosmopolitan distribution comprises at least 130 species worldwide (McAlpine, 1962; Arctos Specimen Database, 2012; Myers et al., 2012), with a large number of economically important species in pasiflora cultivated, because develop its cycle of life from egg to prepupae within the flower bud or fruit (Norrbom and McAlpine, 1996), resulting in the fall of floral structures and damage the fruit unmarketable. This paper includes four new records of species of genus Dasiops Rondani associated grown pasiflora in Colombia.

 

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Between April 2010 and June 2011, were recovered adults of Dasiops spp., from McPhail traps of yellow base, installed in areas with crops of yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa Degener), banana passion fruit (Passiflora tripartita var. mollissima Nielsen and Jorgensen), purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims) and sweet passion fruit (Passiflora ligularis Juss) in regions of the departments of Cundinamarca, Boyacá, Huila, Tolima, Caldas, Quindio, Risaralda, Antioquia, Meta and Valle del Cauca. All McPhail traps were baited with a mixture of 30 mL of corn protein hydrolyzate, borax (10%) as preservative and 220 mL of water. Two traps were instaled per hectare for each crop to maximum height of the plant or tutoring system, as part of agronomic management method. After completing the reading of the traps, withdrew and preserved all of insects the material captured in vials with 90% ethyl alcohol; then, traps were filled with new protein and placed in the crops again. The vials and their contents, were sent at intervals of eight days to them National Laboratory Diagnosis Phytosanitary for analysis and taxonomic determination, according to the protocol proposed by the Instituto Colombiano Agropecuario (ICA, 2011). For taxonomic identification was considered morphological characters key in relation to the presence and number of spiracular setulae, throughout the third antennal segment (flagellomere), face width, smooth or rough face, presence or absence of setulae on the lunula, length of mesonotum, numbers of the propleural setulae and the cilia color in on the calyptero, color and length of the wings, shape of syntergosternito, taenias number of dorsal and ventral, color of tarsomeres, length and features of aculeus, according to Norrbom and McAlpine (1996), Korytkowski and Ojeda (1971). The record photographic was obtained of aculeus, mesonotum in dorsal view, antennas and micro-hairs present in the eye, with a stereomicroscope Nikon® SMZ1000 and microscope CME Leica®. All these characteristics were measured with a 80X magnification.

Ecological zones were established based on the height above sea level, levels of monthly precipitation and temperature from 1999-2011 for each locality. Specimens identified were deposited in the collection of the Institute of Natural Sciences, Natural History Museum of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia in Bogotá.

 

RESULTS

D. brevicornis is a species with blue glow metallic, wings hyaline, hardened aculeus and apex with denticulate margins. Head: Orbital plate without setae on orbital seta. Apparently naked eyes. Thorax: Mesonotum of 1.90-2.04 mm long. Post-stigmales setae 1-2 in females. Wings: Hyaline entirely. Female genitalia: Seventh sintergosternite 0.76-1.02 mm long. Eversible membrane with normal ventral taenia unfused distally. Aculeus 2.00-2.05 mm long, 0.98-1.07 times as long as mesonotum, 0.08 mm wide, base parallel sided or slightly tapered, medial membrane with minute spicules. Tip serrate, triangular of 0.08 mm wide and 0.095-0.110 mm long. Cerci 0.155-0.170 mm long (Figure 1).

D. brevicornis belongs to "brevicornis group", which includes the species D. inedulis Steyskal, D. curubae Steyskal, D. passifloris McAlpine, D. longulus Norrbom and McAlpine, 1996 and D. rugulosus Norrbom and McAlpine 1996. The group synapomorphies correspond to aculeus tip serrate, spermathecal duct slightly sclerotized, brown. Norrbom and McAlpine (1996), indicate that D. brevicornis and D. inedulis conspecific species are differentiated only by aculeus length between the first and 2.0-2.03 for 1.26-1.83 mm for the second, and the relationship aculeus- mesonotum between 0.98-1.07 to D. brevicornis and 0.79 to 0.93 times the length of mesonotum in D. inedulis. In this study, 50% of the specimens of D. brevicornis (n =30) reported a superior relationship at range of length of aculeus described for the species. Currently the authors conducted a study to determine the differences between these two species, using molecular techniques and scanning electron microscopy.

DISCUSSION

D. brevicornis and D. rugifrons were found together associated to sweet passionfruit (Passiflora ligularis Juss) crops in the departments of Risaralda, Huila, Antioquia, Quindio and occupy the life zone Premontane wet forest (bmh - PM) between 1,781 and 2,390 masl and the zone of Premontane moist forest (bh - PM) between 1,075 to 2,198 masl (Holdridge, 1967; 1982). In this case, D. brevicornis was always more frequent along the fifteen months of sampling. D. brevicornis in Antioquia met a range of heights of 1,913 and 2,390 masl and D. rugifrons in Tolima and Cundinamarca between 1,461 and 1,932 masl, with permanent catches between August and June. These species were also found associated with purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims) crops.

According to Steyskal (1980), the species D. inedulis described in that publication may be D. brevicornis, taking into account that they are conspecific. However, Steyskal says D. brevicornis was described of an individual from San Vincente Islands (West Indies) While D. inedulis of individuals from the province of Chiriqui, Panamá, with significant geographical separation to define them as two species. This criterion is not strictly valid, since there are specimens with wide geographical distribution belonging to the same species (Korytkowski,, 2011). In this study it was found in sympatry to D. brevicornis and D. inedulis in three of the ten departments sampled (Table 1), located in the Andean region.

The specimen of D. rugifrons examined by Norrbom and McAlpine (1996), was obtained from fruits of Passiflora alata Curtis, known as maracúa in the state of Merida (Venezuela). In Colombia, this plant species is not considered of commercial interest and only is registered with the department of Amazonas (Ocampo et al., 2007). However, it is considered very close to P. quadrangularis known as badea, exploited in smallholding and distributed in the region Amazónica, Andina, Caribe, Orinoquía and Pacifica from sea level up to 1,500 masl (Estrada and Rodríguez, 2009; Ocampo et al., 2007). D. rugifrons presents membranous aculeus. The authors defend the hypothesis that this feature would not allow directly penetrate host tissues for oviposition, so that is considered a saprophagous species without economica importance, to oviposit in plant tissues previously damaged by the action of other insects.

D. chotanus were found associated to purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis Sims) crops in the life zones of Premontane moist forest (bh-PM) and Montane moist forest lower (bh-MB), respectively, in altitude ranges between 845 to 1,700 masl. The contribution of this study is very relevant because the species was described from males only, and here describes the characteristics of females adult.

D. plaumanni belongs to "group Plumatus". It is characterized by a wide and broad aculeus, setulae inserted up between the base of the antenna, black tarsi, two katepisternal setae, arista plumose and presence of a cluster of black hairs on calyptrae (McAlpine, 1962). According to Korytkowski (2011), this group can be borer of grasses so it is not considered economically important in cultivated pasiflora.

D. brevicornis, D. rugifrons, D. chotanus y D. plaumanni add to the existing records in Colombia for this genus, corresponding to Dasiops inedulis Steyskal (Ambrecht et al., 1986; Chacón and Rojas, 1984; Santos et al., 2009), Dasiops curubae Steyskal (Steyskal, 1980; Umaña, 2005), Dasiops passifloris McAlpine (Figueroa, 1977; Posada, 1989), Dasiops gracilis Norrbom and McAlpine, Dasiops yepezi Norrbom and McAlpine (Yepes and Vélez, 1989; Norrbom and McAlpine, 1996), Dasiops caustonae Norrbom and McAlpine (Umaña, 2005) and Dasiops luzestelae n. sp Korytkowsky and Castro (Castro et al., 2012), associated to pasiflora cultivated in Colombia.

The fruits are an line of special interest to the national economy, particularly for the pasifloras for both domestic consumption and for export, so that the defining the status of diversity and geographical distribution of the species associated with these crops, enables better oversight and adequacy of integrated management strategies.
