Abstract

In 1995, seven tephritid species of bamboo-shoot fruit flies were firstly recorded from southern
Thailand. Nine additional species are reported in this paper. They are Acanthonevra vaga (Wiedemann),
Acroceratitis plumosa Hendel, Acrotaeniostola quinaria (Coquillett), Enicoptera gigantea Enderlein, Euphranta
(Euphranta) striatella (van der Wulp), Felderimyia fuscipennis Hendel, Gastrozona fasciventris (Macquart),
Ptilona confinis (Walker) and Taeniostola vittigera Bezzi. Total number of bamboo-shoot breeding flies species
has increased up to 16. They are recognized in 4 tribes of 2 subfamilies, Ceratitidinae and Trypetinae. Of
these, Phaeospilodes torguata (Hering) is placed as a synonym of Phaeospilodes fenestella (Coquillett) and
Taeniostola limbata Hendel as that of Cyrtostola limbata (Hendel).
