The blowfly Chrysomya latifrons inhabits fragmented rainforests, but shows no population structure

Abstract: Climate change and deforestation are causing rainforests to become increasingly fragmented, placing them at heightened risk of biodiversity loss. Invertebrates constitute the greatest proportion of this biodiversity, yet we lack basic knowledge of their population structure and ecology. There is a compelling need to develop our understanding of the population dynamics of a wide range of rainforest invertebrates so that we can begin to understand how rainforest fragments are connected, and how they will cope wi… Show more

“…Thus, our findings suggest that the high dispersal capabilities of blowflies, and a general absence of dispersal barriers, have resulted in limited genetic differentiation over large geographical distances. Similar findings have been reported in Australian Chrysomya (Butterworth et al., 2023 ) and North American Phormia regina (Picard & Wells, 2009 )—though substantial genetic differentiation has been shown in other species (e.g. North American Lucilia sericata ; Picard & Wells, 2010 ).…”

“…Chrysomya (Butterworth et al, 2023) and North American Phormia Calliphora hilli (neutral data set: 16,636 SNPs; optimal K = 2) and (b) Calliphora stygia (neutral data set: 12,841 SNPs; optimal K = 2) produced using sparse non-negative matrix factorisation (sNMF). Admixture proportions showing K = 2-5 are presented, with populations in order from left to right corresponding to the top of the North Island, through to the bottom of the South Island of New Zealand, followed by Australia.…”
