Reseña del libro "The Fruit Fly Fauna (Diptera - Tephritidae - Dacinae) of Papua New Guinea, Indonesian Papua, Associated Islands and Bougainville"
The book is a taxonomic treatise of the tropical fruit flies of Papua New Guinea, Indonesian Papua, associated islands and Bougainville, the region of the world where speciation in the sub-family Dacinae has been most prolific. The book provides readers with an updated record of all known species of Dacinae that occur in this geographic area including descriptions of 65 new species out of an entire list of 296 known species covered. It provides a discussion on the evolutionary origins of the Dacinae and a key to the genera and sub-genera recorded in the Australian-Pacific Region. Further, the major pest species and their biosecurity risks to other countries are discussed. Extensive field research by the authors and colleagues over many years has resulted in the accumulation of advanced knowledge of the tropical fruit flies in this region.Records 296 known speciesDescriptions and artwork of 65 new speciesDiscusses the evolutionary origins of the DacinaeProvides a key to the genera and sub-genera in the Australian-PacificA key reference for researchers of taxonomy, ecology and pest management in the family Tephritidae worldwide.
