Olive fruit fly is the most harmful pest of olive fruits and important for oil production. Damage involves yield reduction as a consequence of premature fruit drop, but also a reduced quality of olive oil and olive products. There is little available data regarding the biology of Bactrocera oleae in Montenegro. Knowledge of the pest life cycle and development would improve optimization of insecticide application timing and protection of fruits, and reduce adverse effects on the environment. Investigation was conducted on the Zutica variety in an olive grove located in Bar during a three-year period. Population dynamics of the pre-imaginal stages and level of fruit infestation were monitored from mid-July until the end of October. The results of this three-year investigation showed that the beginning of infestation was always at the end of July. It was also found that, depending on environmental conditions, the level of infestation was low until the end of August. In September and October it multiplied, and reached maximum by the end of October. Regarding infestation structure, eggs and first instar larvae were the dominant developmental stages of the pest until the middle of September. From mid-September until mid-October all developmental stages (eggs, larvae, pupae) were equally present in infested fruits. Pupae, cocoons and abandoned galleries prevailed until the harvest.
