Fruit fly larvae are among the most frequently intercepted harmful organisms during inspection of imported fruits and vegetables at EU ports of entry. This training aims to provide deeper insight into morphological identification of Tephritidae larvae. Participants will learn about the most commonly encountered Diptera families of economic significance, the preparation and slide mounting of fruit fly larvae, the morphological features of the most frequently intercepted taxa for a better preparedness to a rapid and reliable identification. 

 

The training will take place in the EURL facilities in Montferrier-sur-Lez (Montpellier) on November 19^th-20^th (2 days). A maximum number of 6 participants can be accepted.
