“…En este sentido, se destacan las localidades de Tafí del Valle, Amaicha del Valle (Tucumán) y Tilcara (Jujuy), ya que las mismas se encuentran a una altura de más de 2000 metros. Si bien se han realizado detecciones de poblaciones de D. suzukii en ambientes de altitud (Hussain et al, 2020;Koch et al, 2020), estos reportes constituirían las primeras detecciones de poblaciones de altura en territorio Sudamericano, junto con el reporte de Reche et al (2021) realizado también en la localidad de Tafí del Valle.…”

Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931 (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is an invasive pest species that causes damage to fruit crops due to premature deterioration of ripe fruits by oviposition inside them. A review of D. suzukii detections in Argentina was carried out and we updated this list with the results of our sampling in the Northwest, Cuyo and Northeast regions. The surveys carried out determined the first detections in the provinces of Jujuy and Córdoba, revealing the continuous geographical expansion of this species.

“…The flow of tourists without any plant bio-security guidelines are not in place in India or Ladakh. Ladakh is having a very important place with unique biodiversity in the Trans Himalayan region and may be a threat to insect and plant biodiversity due to the introduction of invasive pests (browntail moth, apricot aphid, poplar leaf miner, fruit flies, and locusts) from the last five years [1,42]. Currently, the unavailability of plant protection measures for this single pest (codling moth) on apple, restricts the movement of all fresh fruits from Ladakh to other states of the Indian Union.…”

The codling moth is a threat to the apple industries in India. Currently, no solutions are available for the management of codling moth in Ladakh. Therefore, all fresh fruits from Ladakh are still banned due to quarantine regulations. Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh and Ladakh are the three main apple producing states of India, both in quality and quantity. The ban on all fresh fruits from Ladakh directly affects the economy of rural populations. These fruits are sold in all the local markets of Kargil and Leh. Apples damaged by the larvae of codling moth are less preferred by inhabitants, tourists, and security forces, a large area of Ladakh is bordered with China and Pakistan. Field demonstration trials revealed significantly less fruit damage in apple orchards in different hamlets of Ladakh using pheromone dispensers, pheromone baited traps, and two applications of insecticides for codling moth management. A demonstration of the use of pheromone and pheromone dispenser technology for area-wide management for high dense populations of the codling moth in Ladakh has revealed successful results in the orchards of the apple growers. Area-wide management of the codling moth in some villages, using dispenser technology has shown promising results. The ban of fresh fruits in Ladakh may not be, therefore, appropriate as management of the codling moth appears to be successful with the use of pheromone dispenser technology. This technology will, surely, boost the apple industry and have a great potential for establishing commercial orchards and quality apples in high altitudes in the second-highest cold arid region of the world.

“…This species feeds on grapes and other soft fruits and causes significant damage because, unlike most other Drosophila species, it lays eggs and feeds on healthy fruits. This species, which is native to East Asia, has undergone a rapid range expansion across many parts of the world and by 2021 it had been recorded in more than 50 countries (Hussain et al, 2020).…”
