Bactrocera dorsalis(DACUDO)

Distribution details in Micronesia

Situation
Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated 1992: Absent, invalid record
Comments
From US data sheet: in the Federated States of Micronesia (eastern Caroline islands) DACUDO is present in Pohnpei Island (formerly Ponape, part of the Federated State of Pohnpei) and in Kosrae Island (formerly Kusaie, part of the Federated State of Kosrae).

This record is not apparently accepted by CABI map 109, which does not include it for B. dorsalis. Nor are any of the new species of the B. dorsalis complex shown in Micronesia.
