“…According to D'ALMEIDA & ALMEIDA (1998), the broadest niche of L. eximia is in urban areas, followed by forested areas. The presence of this species in this study may be associated with the anthropization of the collection site, as well as the change in the population dynamics that it has undergone since the introduction of the genus Chrysomya in Brazil (PARALUPPI et al, 1996).…”

ABSTRACT. The purpose of this work was to determine the diversity and population fluctuations of calliphorid flies in the Biological Reserve of Tinguá (ReBio-Tinguá), Nova Iguaçu, state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and to correlate their occurrence with the environmental variables of temperature, rainfall and relative air humidity. Specimens of Diptera were collected monthly between June 2002 and January 2005 using four traps placed at four points along a trail and exposed for 48 hours. The traps were baited with sardines and the trapped insects were stored in 70% alcohol. It was collected 8,528 calliphorids, thirteen species were identified among the blowflies including Laneela nigripes Guimarães 1977, Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius, 1794 (Aldrich, 1922). No significant correlation was found between the abundance of blowflies and the temperature and relative air humidity. Only C. megacephala and C. albiceps showed a positive and significant correlation with rainfall. An analysis of grouping by month (UPGMA) revealed no seasonal difference in the composition of the community, indicating that the community of calliphorid flies is probably more influenced by the ecological niches occupied by each species than by the seasons of the year. KEYWORDS.Seasonal abundance, diversity, Atlantic Forest, blowflies. (Aldrich, 1922). Não foi encontrada correlação significativa entre a abundância dos califorídeos e a temperatura e umidade relativa do ar. Somente C. megacephala e C. albiceps apresentaram correlação positiva e significativa com a precipitação. A análise de agrupamento dos meses (UPGMA) mostrou que não houve diferença na composição da comunidade em relação à sazonalidade, indicando que a comunidade de califorídeos é provavelmente mais influenciada pelos nichos ecológicos ocupados por cada uma das espécies do que pelas estações do ano.

“…The typical muscoid adult has been demonstrated to transmit pathogens on the sponging mouthparts, through vomitus, on body and leg hairs, on the sticky pads of the feet, and through the intesti-nal tract (Radvan, 1960). It has been demonstrated that the microorganisms on a fly's body are disseminated by direct contact Sramova et al, 1992;Richards et al, 1961;Paraluppi et al, 1996;Greenberg, 1964;Echeverria et al, 1983;De Capito, 1963;Bolanos, 1959;Akinbode et al, 1989;Khin et al, 1989), in fly feces (Greenberg et al, 1970), and through the air for short distances from insectelectrocuting traps (Pickens, 1989;Broce, 1993;Tesch and Goodman, 1995;Ananth et al, 1992).…”

“…An example of the extent to which flies may harbor foodborne pathogens is the house fly, Musca domestica. Sarcophagidae Kenney et al, 1976;Tachibana et al, 1987;Shiota et al, 1990 foodborne pathogens from natural fly populations implicate blow flies (Chrysomya and Phaenicia) as harboring Salmonella, E. coli, and Shigella Paraluppi et al, 1996). In addition, researchers have discovered natural harboring of infective parasites (Giardia, Taenia, Ascaris, and Trichiurus) on Oriental latrine flies, Chrysomya megacephala (F.); house flies, Musca domestica L.; and flesh flies, Sarcophaga sp.…”

Forty-seven species of flies have been reliably associated with filthy conditions that might allow the spread of foodborne pathogens. These are categorized as "filth flies." Of that 47, only 21 species represent a potential threat to human health as scientifically proven causative agents of foodborne myiasis or as carriers of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, and other foodborne pathogens. These 21 species are categorized as "disease-causing flies" based on strict scientific criteria. The criteria are association with E. coli, Salmonella, AND Shigella; synanthropy; endophily; communicative behavior; attraction to both excrement and food products; and recognition by authorities as a potential health hazard. Within Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point and other U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulatory frameworks, disease-causing flies are contributing factors to the spread of foodborne disease that require preventive and corrective actions as appropriate under Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures, Good Manufacturing Practices, or pest control programs.

“…Synanthropic fly population surveys are often conducted with respect to enteropathogenic bacteria transmission [5–8] as well as some gastrointestinal parasites [9]. Another notable feature of synanthropic fly populations is their propensity for very rapid fluctuations in population density, often with adult numbers increasing by up to two orders of magnitude in a few days [10].…”

Synanthropic fly surveys were performed to determine the species composition and abundance in Ubon Ratchathani province in Northeast Thailand. Adult fly collections were conducted in various human habitations from two districts—Muang Ubon Ratchathani and Warinchamrap, at fresh-food markets, garbage piles, restaurants, school cafeterias, and rice paddy fields. Customized reconstructable funnel fly traps baited with 250 g of 1-day tainted beef were used for fly collections from September 2010–February 2011. A total of 3,262 flies were captured, primarily consisting of three families including: Calliphoridae (6 species), Muscidae (3 species), and Sarcophagidae (11 species). The blow fly, Chrysomya megacephala, and the house fly, Musca domestica, were the dominant species collected from both districts at all collection sites. C. megacephala was predominant in paddy fields, restaurants and garbage piles, while M. domestica was numerically dominant in fresh-food markets and school cafeterias. The current survey identified various species of synanthropic flies with close associations to humans and with the ability to transmit human pathogens in Ubon Ratchathani province; providing crucial information that may be used for developing control and sanitation management plans in this particular area.
