This volume is a guide to the identification of the adults of the 300 species of Tephritidae known to occur in the United States and Canada. Members of this family, commonly known as fruit flies, are agriculturally the most important species of the order Diptera because they are the only two-winged flies to lay their eggs in a wide variety of fresh, undamaged plant tissue.The taxonomic treatment begins with a key to the 56 genera, followed by detailed accounts for each genus and its species. Included in these accounts are synonymies, keys to the species, and annotated line drawings of structures and photographs of wing patterns that illustrate identification characters. Recognition sections discuss the characters that distinguish the genus or species from others. Maps illustrate most species' distribution, and the authors supply host data when available.One of the most significant contributions of the book is the literature review. The authors have listed all significant publications for each genus and species since 1758 and have annotated each literature citation as to its subject matter. The review includes not only taxonomic references but those dealing with every aspect of the biology of the Tephritidae including such topics as behavior, physiology, and genetics
