Moreover, new host associations are recorded: D. frieseni in Citrus sinensis cv. Valencia and an undetermined lonchaeid in Acanthosyris spinescens.</p>

	abstract = {In the present study, we provide information on the duration, characteristics and habits of the different devel- 
opmental stages of the flower bud fly, Dasiops saltans (Townsend) (Diptera: Lonchaeidae) as a result of field 
and laboratory observations. The development time of D. saltans from oviposition to the emergence of the 
adult was 20.85 ({\textpm} 5.94) days in average. The egg stage had a mean duration of 3.74 days. The larval stage 
had a mean duration of 9.05 days from the time the first-instar larva hatches from the egg until the third-instar thelarva exits the flower bud to pupate in the ground. The pupal stage had a mean time of 8.06 days. The adult lived approximately eight days. Dasiops saltans oviposits in the flower buds, and its larvae consume the anthers and other internal parts inhibiting its growth as a consequence. Flower buds affected by D. saltans become reddish in color and easily drop to the ground. Dasiops saltans is found throughout the flowering season feeding on flower buds that are 1.0 to 35.0 cm in length. 

En este trabajo se presenta informaci{\'o}n sobre la duraci{\'o}n, caracter{\'\i}sticas y h{\'a}bitos de los diferentes estados de 
desarrollo de la mosca del bot{\'o}n floral de la pitaya, Dasiops saltans (Townsend) (Diptera: Lonchaeidae) co- 
mo resultado de observaciones realizadas en el campo y laboratorio. Los valores promedio obtenidos desde 
oviposici{\'o}n hasta emergencia fueron de 20.85 ({\textpm} 5.94) d{\'\i}as, huevo: 3.74 d{\'\i}as. Las larvas tienen un tiempo 
promedio de 9.05 d{\'\i}as desde que los huevos eclosionan, hasta que estas salen de los botones florales en el ter- 
cer estado larval para empupar en el suelo. El estado pupal tiene una duraci{\'o}n de 8.06 d{\'\i}as. El adulto vive 
aproximadamente ocho d{\'\i}as. Dasiops saltans oviposita en los botones florales, y las larvas barrenan las ante- 
ras deteniendo as{\'\i} su crecimiento. Los botones florales afectados por D. saltans se tornan rojizos y caen con 
facilidad. La presencia de D. saltans se registr{\'o} durante toda la etapa de floraci{\'o}n en botones florales de 1.0 
cm a 35.0 cm de longitud.
