Sažetak
Following the first finding of Rhagoletis cingulata (Loew) (Diptera Tephritidae) in Croatia in 2005, a surveys conducted in 2008, 2009 and 2013 in fifteen counties in Croatia confirmed the presence of pest in four counties. Under this survey program, the pest was found at two locations in 2008, one locations in 2009 and fourteen locations in 2013. During the three surveys, very low number of adults of R. cingulata were caught on Rebell® amarillo traps during the period from the last week of July until first week of September. Fruits infested with larvae of R. cingulata were found only during 2013 in two samples of Prunus cerasus L. (sour cherry). The results of the surveys during three years on Croatian territory showed slow establishment of R. cingulata in central Dalmatia ; the fly is present at very low levels and no economic damage was recorded. The status of R. cingulata in Croatia is thus, present and locally established at low population levels in central Dalmatia.
