Abstract	Host plants including a total of 22 families representing 45 species were recorded for 16 fruit flies of the tribe Dacini in Sri Lanka. Bactrocera kandiensis was found to be highly polyphagous, and it...s host range was as wide as that of B. dorsalis. Some host plants of B. dorsalis, B. kandiensis, B. correcta, B. cucurbitae, and B. trilineata were newly recorded. In addition, host plants of B. gavisa, B. sp. near nigrotibialis, B. sp. near tau, Dacus discophorus, and D. keiseri were recorded for the first time. Host plants of 46 % Sri Lankan Dacini are now known.show more
