Urophora Affinis
''Urophora affinis'' is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus ''Urophora'' of the family Tephritidae. It has been released in the United States and Canada as a biocontrol agent to control spotted knapweed. ''U. affinis'' became established in Montana in 1973. Life history ''U. affinis'' is multivoltine and overwinters as a larva in knapweed flower heads. In June, adults oviposit on seed heads. Each female can produce about 120 eggs. It has been shown to reduce seed production in knapweed (spotted and diffuse) by up to 95% Harris P. 1980. Effects of Urophora affinis Frfld, and U. quadrifasciata (Meig.)

Urophora Cardui
''Urophora cardui'' or the Canada thistle gall fly is a Tephritidae, fruit fly which, contrary to its common name, is indigenous to Central Europe from the United Kingdom east to near the Crimea, and from Sweden south to the Mediterranean region, Mediterranean. Distribution The Canada thistle gall fly has been introduced to North America from Europe to control the population of its host plant, Canada, or creeping thistle, which is an invasive, introduced weed in North America. Life cycle The fly starts life as an egg, one to thirty of which are laid on the stems of its host plant, the Canada or creeping thistle (''Cirsium arvense''), during the host's growing season. After hatching, the larvae burrow into the stem and form a gall (or swelling). The larvae grow to reach 98% of their full adult body weight, and overwinter in the gall in the third larval stage (instar). They pupate in early spring for 24 to 35 days and appear reddish brown. The adult fly then chews a tunnel an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tephritidae
The Tephritidae are one of two fly families referred to as fruit flies, the other family being the Drosophilidae. The family Tephritidae does not include the biological model organisms of the genus ''Drosophila'' (in the family Drosophilidae), which is often called the "common fruit fly". Nearly 5,000 described species of tephritid fruit fly are categorized in almost 500 genera of the Tephritidae. Description, recategorization, and genetic analyses are constantly changing the taxonomy of this family. To distinguish them from the Drosophilidae, the Tephritidae are sometimes called peacock flies, in reference to their elaborate and colorful markings. The name comes from the Greek τεφρος, ''tephros'', meaning "ash grey". They are found in all the biogeographic realms. Description For terms see Morphology of Diptera anTephritidae glossary Tephritids are small to medium-sized (2.5–10 mm) flies that are often colourful, and usually with pictured wings, the subcostal ve ...
