Courtship behavior of wild and mass-reared Mediterranean fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) males from Argentina

We analyzed the courtship behavior of wild and mass-reared strains of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), by means of video recording. Males of both strains were placed with wild females. The proportion of males successful in copulating with females did not differ significan...
