“…Our results disagree with (Spencer, et al, 1981) who reported that the seasonal population lows during Spring 1978 and 1979 and the seasonal population highs during Winter in the tropical area and (Koller, et al, 2011) have recorded that screwworm populations reach their peak in late Autumn and early Winter. Oliveira, et al, (1982) also reported greater abundance of this species during the Winter and Spring in Rio de Janeiro.…”

This study was conducted in different region in Sulaimani province, Kurdistan Region-Iraq, from August 2021 to April 2022. Isolated randomly, 527 (3.4%) out of 15360 sheep examined had myiasis, identified three genus and sex species of flies in all locations based on morphological characteristics. Chrysomya Bezziana is found in all regions instead of Qardagh and Sharbazher, Lucilia Sericata, Calliphora Vomitoria, and Calliphora vicina were found in all regions. The prevalence rate of myiasis was found in Dukan region at 5.5% (95/1715) and the lowest rate was revealed in the Garmiyan region 2.6% (81/3160). During the seasonal distribution, the highest rate of myiasis was found in Spring (4.8%), followed by (3.8%) in the Summer and (3.4%) in the Autumn, while shows the lowest distribution in Winter (0.8%). In this study, to accurately detect flies, fresh meat was placed in several areas, observed the heavy flies landing spring season.

“…Additional information obtained from screwworm adult captures contributed to providing a more complete distribution of C. hominivorax in the country ( Figure 2D, Table 2). Adults of C. hominivorax have been caught in several sites, mainly by traps baited with carcasses (ALVES et al, 2014;FARIA et al, 2018), rotting viscera or other decaying material (KOLLER et al, 2002(KOLLER et al, , 2011SOUSA et al, 2010;GONÇALVES et al, 2011;GADELHA et al, 2015;PEREIRA DE SOUSA et al, 2015OLIVEIRA et al, 2016). Although decaying baits are not the best attractant to a fly species causing primary myiasis, this relatively inexpensive and simple choice has provided useful information on the distribution of C. hominivorax in Brazil (Figure 2E).…”

Cochliomyia hominivorax (Coquerel, 1858), the New World screwworm, causes primary myiasis in wild and domestic animals in tropical and subtropical regions of Brazil. Although this species is considered to occur throughout the country, organized information about its recorded distribution has not been available until now. This article aimed to provide a comprehensive review of the historical and current data published on both immature (myiasis) and adult stages of C. hominivorax in Brazil. A total of 174 articles were found; of these, 141 articles reported myiasis cases in cattle (146 records), humans (68 records), and other mammalian hosts (40 records), and captures of adult flies were reported in 33 articles. C. hominivorax is widespread in Brazil, having been recorded in 208 municipalities in all major biomes of the country.

This study aimed at surveying the local calliphorid and sarcophagid species in Maranhão State (Brazil) to determine their distribution and abundance, as well as the distribution of exotic Chrysomya species. In total, 18,128 calliphorid specimens were collected, distributed in 7 genera and 14 species. The species Hemilucilia semidiaphana (Rondani, 1850) and Paralucilia paraensis (Mello, 1969) were new state records. Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann, 1819) and Cochliomyia macellaria (F., 1775) were the most abundant species, and the exotic species of Chrysomya together contributed more than 50% of total blow fly abundance. The abundance distribution of the calliphorid community conformed to a log series model, characterized by a steep curve that reflects an assemblage with a high degree of dominance. For the Sarcophagidae, a total of 14,810 specimens were collected and distributed in 15 genera, 11 subgenera, and 52 species. Tricharaea (Sarcophagula) occidua (F., 1794) and Peckia (Sarcodexia) lambens (Wiedemann, 1830) were the most abundant species. The abundance distribution of the species followed a log normal model, with a gentler slope, consistent with a more uniform community. The cumulative species curve for the sarcophagids did not reach the asymptote. Forty-three sarcophagid species were new state records and 22 were new records for the Brazilian northeast, which emphasizes the need for a continued survey in this region.
