Six out of the 25 loci tested were found to be polymorphic. Allelic frequencies were estimated and the populations were found to be panmictic for 4 out of those 6 loci. Two of the polymorphic loci showed a significant clinal pattern in gene frequency changes by Spearman rank correlation with latitude. At 4 loci a steep gradient in allele frequency in Idh from to is observed in the axis of the north-south transect. Ceratitis capitata allelic frequency cline Résumé Clines latitudinaux de frequences aỉléỉiques dans des populations médi-terranéennes de Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann . Des échantilỉons de la mouche des fruits Ceratitis capitata provenant de 6 regions differentes de 4 pays méditerranéens ont été examines pour leur polymorphisme génétique à 25 locus enzymatiques. Six des locus se sont avérés polymorphes et les frequences génotypiques observées à 4 de ces locus sont conformes à 1 hypothèse de panmixie. Un cline latitudinal significatif des frequences alléliques a été mis en evidence pour 2 de ces genes polymorphes par un test de correlation de rang de Spearman. Pour 4 locus les variations de frequences alléliques dans I axe nord-sud sont importantes par exemple la frequence de 1 allèle du gene Idh varie de 1 00 à 0 63 le long de cet axe.
