“…Couri et al (2008), working on material collected in the 1970's in the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha, 550 km from Pernambuco coastline, listed eight dipteran families, including Calliphoridae, Sarcophagidae and Muscidae. Tricharaea (Sarcophagula) occidua (Fabricius, 1794) (Sarcophagidae) was reported only in beach ecosystems (Couri et al 2008;Oliveira 2009), similarly to what was observed in Argentina (Mariluis et al 2007). No necrophagous coleopteran species were found to be exclusive to coastal zone according to the reviewed literature.…”

“…material 1). This species was also dominant in similar studies in a natural reserve in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where it was found associated with feces (Mariluis et al 2007, Mulieri et al 2008. In Brazil, it was the most abundant species in cow's lung tissue (Pereira de Sousa et al 2015) and the second most abundant in pig carcasses (Barbosa et al 2009), in buffalo excrements (Marchiori 2014), and the third most abundant in feces in the Archipelago Fernando de Noronha (Couri et al 2008).…”

ABSTRACT. Sarcophaginae is the most diverse subfamily of Sarcophagidae with 51 genera and more than 1,800 species and it is widely distributed in the Neotropical Region. Sarcophaginae flies of forest, rural, and urban habitats of the seven departments comprising the Colombian Guajira biogeographic province were surveyed. Van Someren Rydon traps baited with fermented fruit, decomposing fish, and human feces were active for 72 hours with samples collected every 12 hours (day/night) between 2010 and 2014. A total of 14,223 sarcophagines (78% females and 22% males) were collected, which belong to 28 species of nine genera. Oxyvinia excisa (Lopes, 1950) is a new record for Colombia. The richest genera were Oxysarcodexia Townsend, 1917 and Peckia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830, with eleven and nine species, respectively. Some of the species with the highest affinity to urban habitats were Oxysarcodexia bakeri (Aldrich, 1916), Oxysarcodexia aurata (Macquart, 1851), and Oxysarcodexia timida (Aldrich, 1916); to rural habitats were Oxysarcodexia diana (Lopes, 1933), Ravinia columbiana (Lopes, 1962), and Ravinia effrenata (Walker, 1861); and to forest habitats were Helicobia rapax (Walker, 1849), Oxysarcodexia avuncula (Lopes, 1933), and Oxysarcodexia major Lopes, 1946. We also discuss diet, habitat, and activity periods of the species. Species composition of Sarcophaginae in the Guajira province was very homogenous across the habitats, with the forest as the richest habitat. Scavenger habits of Sarcophaginae are confirmed, as well as their strong association with anthropic environments.

-The false stable fl y, Muscina stabulans (Fallén), was surveyed along an urban-rural gradient at Almirante Brown, Buenos Aires province, Argentina. Samples were taken at monthly intervals from May 2005 to April 2007. Hourly captures of adult fl ies (10:00 am -04:00 pm) were taken at each sampling date with a hand net. The baits used were 250 g of rotten cow liver and 250 g of fresh dog faeces exposed in shaded and sunny areas. The entire sample accumulated 358 specimens. The number of specimens captured during the second year was higher than in the fi rst year. Muscina stabulans was more abundant at urban-suburban sites. Females showed signifi cant preferences for cow liver. We caught more specimens in shaded areas. The hourly activity increased toward the afternoon at the three sites. The present work was the fi rst ecological study related to a muscid species in Argentina.
