Abstract
The tephritid fruit flies that feed on cultivated cherries in New York and surrounding areas include two native species, the cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cingulata, and the black cherry fruit fly, R. fausta, as well as the invasive European cherry fruit fly, R. cerasi. The range of the cherry fruit fly (CFF) includes most of eastern North America. The black cherry fruit fly (BCFF) has a more northern distribution than the CFF, reaching only as far south as Pennsylvania, and exists in eastern as well as western North America. The European cherry fruit fly (ECFF) is native to Europe and parts of Asia, and was found in southern Ontario, Canada in 2016, as well as in western New York in 2017.
