Resumen:
In Patagonia, knowledge about the interaction among tephritids and thenative flora is very scarce. In this study we identified for the first time twotephritid species (Cecidochares sp. and Neosphaeniscus m-nigrum)associated with the capitula of Chuquiraga avellanedae. This is thefirst record of a host plant for the genus Neosphaeniscus.Cecidochares sp. wasmore abundant and had a shorter development time than N. m-nigrum. Also,two families of parasitoid wasps (Pteromalidae and Eurytomidae) wereregistered. Further studies are needed to understand the impact of thesetephritids on C. avellanedae fitness and their potential to control itspopulations.
