Abstract
The 439 described species in subgenus Bactrocera Macquart, 1835 of genus Bactrocera are referred to 90 species groups in 18 morphologically defined complexes. Semicallantra Drew, 1989 is placed as a new synonym of subgenus Bactrocera. Bactrocera (Bactrocera) wallacei Drew & Hancock, new species, is described from Maluku, Indonesia. Bactrocera clarkei Starkie, Strutt & Royer, 2022 and B. petila Drew, 1989 are transferred from subgenus Bactrocera to subgenera Neozeugodacus May, 1952a and Calodacus Hancock, 2015 respectively. Bactrocera incognita Doorenweerd & San Jose, 2024 and B. borneoensis Doorenweerd & San Jose, 2024 are regarded as new synonyms of B. occipitalis (Bezzi, 1919) and B. carambolae Drew & Hancock, 1994 respectively. Bactrocera irvingiae Drew & Hancock, 1994 is newly reported from Taiwan based on a previous misidentification as ‘Dacus parvulus’. Discussions are included on the history of research, biogeography, male lures, host plants and molecular evidence.
