Dear Mohamed, thank you for your request. There is a Diptera species in the picture, but it does not look like any known citrus pest. It is definitely not Ceratitis capitata, commonly known as the Mediterranean fruit fly or medfly, which is a very dangerous pest of citrus. In any case, it appears to have been attacked by an entomopathogenic fungus (possibly Beauveria bassiana), which likely killed it. Best regards, M. Zúbrik
