Anastrepha superflua is a species of fruit fly within the family Tephritidae. Observations of museum specimens in the TreeOfLife-200M dataset reveal characteristic features of the genus, including a distinct wing venation pattern typical of Anastrepha species.[1] The body exhibits the typical tephritid form, with a robust thorax and abdomen. Diagnostic morphological traits used in taxonomic identification include the structure of the aculeus tip, the male terminalia, and the eversible membrane.[2]
Anastrepha superflua is known to occur in Central America, specifically in Costa Rica and Panamá.[2]
