Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The manuscript adresses a very relevant information on niche of  four species of Anastrepha (Diptera: Tephritidae). 

The title is very long.  The introduction in the abstracts coccupies the most part of the abstracts.  I suggested new keywords. 

In the introduction, authors must highlight the advances in the new article in relation to the one already published (Degracia, A.B.; Jiménez, J.Á.; Alvarado, A.B.; Valdespino, R.A.; Altamiranda-Saavedra, M. Evaluation of the Effect of the ENSO Cycle on the Distribution Potential of the Genus Anastrepha of Horticultural Importance in the Neotropics and Panama. Insects 2023, 14, 714. https://doi.org/10.3390/insects14080714).

The methodology and results are well described. 

The discussion should include more specific works, giving a clearer idea of the differences and similarities with other studies, even if they did not use the same method. Although the work did not aim to evaluate climate change scenarios, I suggest including this information to increase the number of readers. I suggest that the authors discuss using the works below.

Highlight progress in relation to the last article published by your team.

The conclusion must be more in-depth.. The names of some of the authors are incorrect in the references.
