(1917). 



This species was originaly bred from oranges (Citrus aurantimn). 

 In his paper Bezzi gives the following records : — 



Pusa, adults ; Bangalore, adult ; Machavaram, Godavari Distric: ; 

 Coimbatore ; Nagpur, larva in bottle-gourd ; Dehra Dun. 



The Pusa collection contains specimens reared at Peradeniya from 

 larvBB in mango and at Mandalay from larvae in plantain. ^ 



The females are attracted by the smell of soursop (Anona muricata). Mr. Sinior-Wlute. 



That is a useful observation. The male? of many- of these fruitflies Mr. Fietcher. 

 are readily attracted to smells, but that provides no means of control as 

 it is the females which do the damage. If we can attract the females, 

 Ihe case becomes different.
