Interspecific crosses of Bactrocera tryoni (Froggatt) and Bactrocera jarvisi (Tryon) (Diptera: Tephritidae) in the laboratory

F-1 progeny from the cross between two species of Australian fruit flies, Bactrocera tryoni (Froggatt) and Bactrocera jarvisi (Tryon), mated with each other in the laboratory to produce viable F-2 offspring. F-1 and F-2 hybrids were morphologically distinct from their B. tryoni and B. jarvisi parents.
