Tephritis is a genus of flies. It contains around 170 described species, making it the sixth largest genus in the family Tephritidae.[1] Many more undescribed species are known from specimen collections.[2] Tephritis occur throughout much of the world, but most are Palearctic.[1] They can be found in a wide range of climate types, from hot semidesert to tundra.[3] Most species inhabit the inflorescences of plants from several tribes in the family Asteraceae, and a few species cause galls to form.[1][4]

Tephritis can be distinguished from other fruit flies of the Tephritinae by the arrangement of setae on their bodies, among other characters.[5]

Species

The genus Tephritis includes the following species:[6]

Tephritis neesii
Tephritis bardanae
Tephritis conura
