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.

“…Krafsur & Whitten (1993) examined isozyme loci in 11 Mexican populations and reported that screwworm populations in Mexico belonged to a single panmitic population. Taylor et al (1996) also used isozyme loci to study two Brazilian populations and compared the results with previous data from Costa Rica (Taylor & Peterson, 1994) and partial data from Mexico (Krafsur & Whitten, 1993), also reporting that NWS represented a single panmitic population. By contrast, subsequent analyses of Brazilian populations, using different types of molecular markers in both the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes, suggested a reduced gene flow between interconnecting structured populations (Infante‐Vargas & Azeredo‐Espin, 1995; Infante‐Malachias et al , 1999; Azeredo‐Espin & Lessinger, 2006).…”

. Diseases affecting livestock can have a significant impact on animal productivity and on trade of live animals, meat and other animal products, which, consequently, affects the overall process of economic development. The New World screwworm, Cochliomyia hominivorax (Coquerel) (Diptera: Calliphoridae), is an important parasitic insect pest in Neotropical regions. This species has been successfully eradicated from North and most of Central America by the sterile insect technique, but continues to affect the development of the livestock sector in most Caribbean economies. Here, we provide some insight into the patterns of genetic variation and structure and gene flow of C. hominivorax populations from the Caribbean. Analysis of populations from 10 geographical sites in four islands revealed a moderate genetic variability within the populations. Surprisingly, a high population differentiation was found even in intraisland comparisons between populations. This observation can reflect either highly structured populations resulting from a lack of gene flow or a source -sink dynamic. Our study also suggests that New World screwworm populations can recover very rapidly from population contractions. This is valuable information that should be required prior to any investment in large-scale efforts aiming at controlling this pest.

“…Blow flies of the family calliphoridae are distributed worldwide and some of the spices belonging to this family are known to be causative agents of animal tissue myiasis and transmission of enteric pathogens and parasites causing severe loss to live stoke (El-Azazy, 1989). Enzyme electrophoresis has contributed a great deal to elucidate genetic differences in calliphorids (Bush and Neck 1976 , Whitten 1980, Richardson et al 1982,Krafsur and Whitten 1993, Taylor and Peterson 1994, Taylor et al 1996, Wallman and Adams,1997,2001). However in the genus Chrysomya genetic variation has been analysed only by using microsatellite markers in Chrysomya albiceps (Torris and Azeredo-Espin, 2008) and C.Putoria (Rodrigues et al 2009) from Brazil.…”

Genetic variation at four gene enzyme systems was analyzed in Crysomya megacephala. The three enzymes namely acid phophatase (ACPH), aldehyde oxidase(AO),glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) were found to express activity only in a single zone indicating that they are encoded at single locus .Alcohol dehydrogenase was monomorphic while acid phoshatase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were polymorphic.
