Notes on the frugivorous fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) fauna of western Africa, with description of a new Dacus species Author Meyer, Marc De Author White, Ian M. Author F. M. Goodger, Kim text European Journal of Taxonomy 2013 2013-07-18 50 1 17 journal article 22315 10.5852/ejt.2013.50 170261c6-3ceb-43bd-8ccf-a9caccec72da 2118-9773 3814414 F550B61F-1152-47A3-8217-7AAA4AD6BCAB Dacus pleuralis Collart, 1935 Among the material examined was a male specimen collected at Ibadan, Nigeria ( 4-8 Dec. 2003 , cue lure traps, leg. G. Goergen), in addition to the male specimen studied earlier ( White & Goodger 2009 ). It shows some morphological deviation from the earlier collected specimen and from the type material as redescribed in White (2006) : the xanthines (katatergite and anatergite) are fused, while in the typical D. pleuralis the xanthines are clearly separated. The anterior supra-alar seta is absent or vestigial while well developed in the typical D. pleuralis . These differences, however, appear to be intraspecific variation and do not warrant separate description.
