A field survey was conducted from March 1998 to July 2000 to identify the Tephritoidea species and fruit fly parasitoids associated with coffee (Coffea spp.) in different areas of the State of Sao Paulo. More than 124,000 berries (159.0 kg; 106 samples) were collected from twelve coffee varieties and hybrids. About 19,450 puparia and 13,501 adults of Tephritoidea were recovered. An average infestation of 0.075 puparium of Tephritoidea per fruit and 58.8 puparia/kg of fruit were estimated from the total samples. The percentage of samples infested by Tephritidae was higher than 92%. Anastrepha and Ceratitis capitata adults were obtained from 67% and 71% of the samples, respectively. About 89.2% of adults were Tephritidae and 10.8% were Lonchaeidae. Above 70% of Tephritidae adults corresponded to C. capitata. From 1,677 Anastrepha females only A. fraterculus was found. Four species of Braconidae parasitoids were recovered: Doryctobracon areolatus, D. brasiliensis, Utetes anastrephae and Opius sp. Eucoilinae specimens were also recorded.
