The Australian Handbook for the Identification of Fruit Flies :
  • Was written by diagnosticians for diagnosticians;
  • Collates current and existing practices and knowledge into a single document;
  • Pools experience from Australia’s network of fruit fly experts;
  • Establishes a resource that can support and develop the confidence and expertise of all users;
  • Provides a mechanism to possibly identify future information and research needs; and,
  • Considers the potential of both morphological and molecular techniques.
The Handbook has been an important part of building a network of fruit fly diagnosticians across Australia and it is hoped that both the network and this document continue to grow and develop in the future. We also welcome feedback from fruit fly experts around the world. The Handbook is a compilation of diagnostic techniques for some 47 fruit fly species, most of which are exotic to Australia. The Handbook is intended to facilitate rapid diagnosis of fruit fly species and be a comprehensive guide for Australian diagnosticians and field officers.
