LEDEZMA A, Julieta et al. The use of parasitoids for the biological control of fruit flies in Santa Cruz. Tinkazos [online]. 2013, vol.16, n.34, pp.93-117. ISSN 1990-7451.

Santa Cruz is the main fruit-producing region in Bolivia. Fruit flies are pests that cause considerable economic losses in the region’s fruit production sector. This article presents the results of a research project that studied the biodiversity of parasitoids associated with fruit flies in the municipalities of Porongo and La Guardia, as an alternative for the biological control of this pest.

Palabras clave : fruit flies; parasitoids; biological pest control; fruit production; agricultural pests; Santa Cruz.
