  abstract = {{W}hiteflies {B}emisia tabaci ({G}ennadius) and {T}rialeurodes vaporariorum ({W}estwood) ({H}emiptera: {A}leyrodidae) are important pests in pepper ({C}apsicum annuum {L}.) and tomato ({S}olanum lycopersicum {L}.) crops in many countries. {C}ontrary to what is observed for all other countries, in {U}ruguay, {B}. tabaci is mainly found on pepper and rarely on tomato, while {T}. vaporariorum is exclusively found on tomato. {T}his study tested the oviposition preferences and biotic potential of these two whiteflies reared on both host plants. {T}he developmental time, survival rates, longevity, fecundity and main population parameters were characterized. {B}oth whitefly species showed different preference patterns regarding their host plants. {T}. vaporariorum preferred tomato instead of pepper to oviposit. {T}heir developmental time is longer on pepper. {B}. tabaci preferred pepper, but the difference from tomato was not very strong. {P}epper affects the biotic expression of {T}. vaporariorum negatively, while {B}. tabaci is able to develop equally on both host plants. {T}hese results show that the distribution differences of both whiteflies observed on both host plants could have a biological basis.},
