Figure 4 in Trapping Pestiferous Fruit Flies (Diptera: Tephritidae): Additional Studies on the Performance of Solid Bactrocera Male Lures and Separate Insecticidal Strips Relative to Standard Liquid Lures

Figure 4. Captures of Bactrocera cucurbitae males in traps baited with CL lures of variable age. Data for CL plugs weathered in Arizona and Florida are given in top and bottom plots, respectively. While lure age varied among treatments, the toxicant was fresh (no weathering) in all treatments. Liquid was applied to a cotton wick; in all other cases CL was presented in a polymeric plug. Height of bar represents mean number of males captured per trap (n = 15 traps per treatment) in a 24-h period; error bars are + 1 SE. No significant variation existed among treatments for either Arizona (F = 0.5, P = 0.65) or Florida (F = 1.9, P = 0.15). Bars sharing a letter did not differ significantly (P> 0.05).
