“…They have diverse habits and play important roles in ecosystems as pollinators and decomposers. Several representatives of these three subfamilies are strongly synanthropic, including a few species reported as facultative or obligate myiasis producers, causing traumatic myiasis in humans, livestock, and wildlife [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ].…”

The antennae are the main olfactory organ of flies, playing key roles in their survival and the success of all life stages. Antennal ultrastructural morphology has been well described in the representative species of most calyptrate families, yet only a few studies have focused on Sarcophagidae species, those with ecological and medical relevance. Antennal morphology and the types, shapes, distribution, and density of the antennal sensilla of nine Sarcophagidae species are studied in detail with scanning electron microscopy, including Miltogramminae: Metopia campestris (Fallén) and Mesomelena mesomelaena (Loew), Paramacronychiinae: Agria mihalyii (Rohdendorf & Verves), Wohlfahrtia bella (Macquart), and W. magnifica (Schiner); Sarcophaginae: Sarcophaga (Parasarcophaga) albiceps Meigen, S. (Bercaea) africa (Wiedemann), S. (Boettcherisca) peregrina (Robineau-Desvoidy), and S. (Liosarcophaga) portschinskyi (Rohdendorf), covering all three subfamilies of this family. The morphology of the three segments of the antennae has been described. The scape has only one type of chaetic sensilla, while three subtypes of chaetic sensilla were detected on the pedicel. The postpedicel has four types of sensilla: trichoid sensilla, coeloconic sensilla, clavate sensilla, and three subtypes of basiconic sensilla. Bottle-shaped sensilla were observed in sensory pits on the postpedicel in all nine species. These sensilla have not been discovered in other calyptrate species, suggesting that they are a potential sarcophagid synapomorphy.

“…Kejadian myiasis pada kulit paling sering dijumpai pada ternak dengan manifestasi klinis berupa furunkula, migrasi dan traumatika (Francesconi dan Lupi, 2012). Secara umum, jenis lalat yang menyebabkan myiasis termasuk dalam famili Calliphoridae (Stevens, 2003), Sarcophagidae (Giangaspero et al, 2017), Hypodermatidae (Pavlásek dan Minář, 2014), Oestridae (Zanzani et al, 2016) dan Gasterophilidae (Huang et al, 2016). Sedangkan jenis lalat yang menyebabkan myiasis furunkula adalah Dermatobia hominis (Meurer et al, 2016), Cordylobia anthropophaga (Fujisaki et al, 2008), Wohlfahrtia vigil (Dehghani et al, 2014), dan spesies Cuterebra (Crumley et al, 2011).…”

Myiasis is defined as a condition in which maggots are from certain fly species that utilize living, dead, or necrotic tissue from the host as a feed source for their growth and development and attack all types of vertebrate animals that are warm-blooded including humans. myiasis is often found in domestic animals in tropical regions throughout the world, especially in developing countries such as Indonesia and is generally associated with low levels of welfare of farmers. The diagnosis of myiasis is based on a clinical examination of wound bleeding, fever, a characteristic odor, the discovery of exudates and maggots in the wound. Myiasis treatment is generally local followed by manual removal of larvae and necrotic tissue debris. Systemic treatment usually uses broad-spectrum antibiotics especially when secondary infections occur. Disease prevention can be done by providing information to farmers to pay attention to and carry out livestock sanitation, pens, the surrounding environment and control flies using various methods. Keywords: clinical examination, disease prevention, maggot, myiasis

“…Recently, molecular biology techniques have been popular in diagnosing myiasis, and sequences analysis and phylogenetic analysis have been particularly widely applied [ 16 – 20 ]. Dermoscopy [ 21 ], ultrasound scanning [ 22 ], mineral oil and magnification [ 2 ], serology [ 23 ] and many other techniques are applied to diagnose myiasis. Because molecular biological methods can avoid misjudgment and lead to specific detection compared to the traditional methods, they increase accuracy and efficiency of species determination and diagnosis.…”

Neonatal oral myiasis caused by the larvae of Sarcophaga ruficornis (Diptera: Sarcophagidae): a case report

et al. 2021

Background Myiasis is caused by dipterous larvae, and rarely affects the mouth. Diagnosis by traditional means is easy to be confused with other similar species. Here, we report a case of oral myiasis, in a 5-month-old infant who was diagnosed by morphological examination and molecular biological methods. Case presentation A 5-month old infant with acute myeloid leukemia was admitted due to recurrent skin masses for more than 4 months. The infant had lip swelling, which prevented him from closing the mouth and membranes were present in his mouth and there were also oral ulcers and erosions. Ten maggots were found in the mouth and one in the ear canal with pus flowing out and were confirmed as the third stage larvae of Sarcophaga ruficornis by morphological examination and a comparison of sequence of cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (COX1) gene. After removal of the maggots and chemotherapy, the infant ’s condition was gradually improved. Conclusions To the best of our our knowledge, this is the first neonatal oral myiasis case reported in China and its diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion. Microscopy combined with specific DNA sequence analysis is an effective technological tool to provide rapid diagnoses of the larva specimen and cases of rare diseases, as illustrated in the current case.
