    This research was conducted with the objective of analyzing the data obtained during the campaigns of monitoring and follow-up of fruit flies in the cantons of Santa Isabel, Girón, Paute and Guachapala, in the province of Azuay, during the years 2020, 2021 and 2022. The research, applied and with a quantitative approach and descriptive, was based on the use of McPhail and Jackson traps, installed by the National Fruit Fly Management Program of AGROCALIDAD. Weekly data on captures, species present and host crops were collected and analyzed at. Among the main results, it was found that the population fluctuation of the pest varies significantly according to the canton and the year, with Santa Isabel and the year 2022 presenting the highest levels of infestation. Seventeen species of flies were identified, with Ceratitis capitata and Anastrepha fraterculus being the most abundant. The McPhail trap was most effective, capturing 86% of the individuals. In addition, by means of cluster analysis, preferential hosts were determined such as mango in Santa Isabel, avocado in Guachapala and orange in Girón. It is concluded that the dynamics of fruit fly populations is influenced by climatic factors, species diversity and the presence of specific hosts.
