[Aim] As quarantine officers, better use of the intercepted data to prevent the artificial transmission is the urgent task at present. No species of the genus Ceratitis, which is native to Africa, is currently present in China, while there have been border interceptions, so there is a certain risk of invasion. In this paper, we analysed interception data on Ceratitis charcterise propagule pressure.[Method] The data on species, interception modes and interception locations were acquired from the Chinese animal and plant inspection and quarantine information resources platform.[Result] A total of 8 species and 524 batches of Ceratitis have been intercepted, most frequently individuals of C. capitata (415 batches, 79.2% of the total). The country with the most intercepted species was Nigeria, with 5 species. The country of origin with most of the intercepted batches was South African (71 batches). Most interceptions were made during passanger inspection(68.3% of all cases). Most interceptions were made at Guangdong (57.4%).[Conclusion] There exists a considerable propagule pressure by species of Ceratitis, so inspection should be strengthened, the application of new technology in identification recommended, and an emergency plan should be developed.
