In 2011, the highest mean number of male oriental fruit flies/trap/day (241.42 ± 11.79) was recorded in June and the lowest (2.21 ± 0.40) in December. The highest mean number of male oriental frui t flies/trap/day (388.95 ± 8.56) was recorded in the month of June and the lowest (2.33 ± 0.20) in December, 2016. Population data were correlated with meteorological data including temperature, duration of sunshine, and rainfall. Population fluctuation of male fruit flies was positively correlated with temperature and rainfall, and negatively correlated with the duration of sunshine.展开更多
