Fruit fly species

These insect species are still classified in the fly species insect order. But it is not a general fly that always plays in dirty locations or in any location that is unclean.

As information that needs to be conveyed that in Indonesia itself has 66 species of fruit flies that breed in every plant and bush or in any location that has food either sourced from the plant itself or even food scraps that are automatically located in the region.

In 2017, precisely in one region in Indonesia or the island of Java, almost every species of this fruit fly attacked 100 fruit plants that are being cultivated by farmers.

From each species that attacks farmers' crops, there is one type of fruit fly in Indonesia, namely Bactrocera sp. This species very often attacks and makes rotten fruit when they land. However, the fruit flies contained in this post refer to the local community as green fruit flies. Its presence is not like the fruit fly Bactrocera sp.

Among the many fruit flies besides Bactrocera sp, it turns out that there is one species of fruit fly called Drosophila melanogaster, its body shape is almost like the shape of a bee or wasp but the only difference is its body size and characteristics.

Their characteristics are very diverse from the initial state of the fruit's body until the fruit is ripe, Drosophila flies are generally present when the fruit begins to mature, whereas the Bactrocera flies are usually hidden in the fruit since the fruit is not too ripe, even in plantations, they are sometimes infiltrate with his own technique when the fruit is still relatively young.
