Abstract

The first records of six Anastrepha species are reported for the state of Paraná, Brazil, namely A. amita Zucchi, 1979; A. barnesi Aldrich, 1925; A. consobrina (Loew, 1873); A. manihoti Lima, 1934; A. morvasi Uramoto & Zucchi, 1999; and A. punctata Hendel, 1914. Citharexylum solanaceum Cham. (Verbenaceae) is recorded as a new host plant for A. amita, and Inga vera Willd. (Fabaceae) as new host plant for A. distincta. With these new records the number of species of Anastrepha recorded from Paraná is increased from 15 to 21.
