Abstract

The second- and third-instar larvae of three species in the fraterculus group, Anastrepha bahiensis Lima, Anastrepha coronilli Carrejo & González, and Anastrepha turpiniae Stone are described and illustrated for the first time. Character states that can be used to distinguish among the three species and their overlap among other species in the fraterculus group are discussed.
