Key to the Adults of the Most Common Forensic Species of Diptera in South America
390 Key to the adults of the most common forensic species ofCarvalho Diptera & Mello-Patiu in South America Claudio José Barros de Carvalho1 & Cátia Antunes de Mello-Patiu2 1Department of Zoology, Universidade Federal do Paraná, C.P. 19020, Curitiba-PR, 81.531–980, Brazil. [email protected] 2Department of Entomology, Museu Nacional do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro-RJ, 20940–040, Brazil. [email protected] ABSTRACT. Key to the adults of the most common forensic species of Diptera in South America. Flies (Diptera, blow flies, house flies, flesh flies, horse flies, cattle flies, deer flies, midges and mosquitoes) are among the four megadiverse insect orders. Several species quickly colonize human cadavers and are potentially useful in forensic studies. One of the major problems with carrion fly identification is the lack of taxonomists or available keys that can identify even the most common species sometimes resulting in erroneous identification. Here we present a key to the adults of 12 families of Diptera whose species are found on carrion, including human corpses. Also, a summary for the most common families of forensic importance in South America, along with a key to the most common species of Calliphoridae, Muscidae, and Fanniidae and to the genera of Sarcophagidae are provided. Drawings of the most important characters for identification are also included. KEYWORDS. Carrion flies; forensic entomology; neotropical. RESUMO. Chave de identificação para as espécies comuns de Diptera da América do Sul de interesse forense. Diptera (califorídeos, sarcofagídeos, motucas, moscas comuns e mosquitos) é a uma das quatro ordens megadiversas de insetos. Diversas espécies desta ordem podem rapidamente colonizar cadáveres humanos e são de utilidade potencial para estudos de entomologia forense. -

54 Case Report / Olgu Sunumu A Case of Traumatic Myiasis in a Domestic Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) Caused By Lucilia sericata Evcil Bir Tavşanda (Oryctolagus cuniculus) Lucilia sericata’nın Neden Olduğu Travmatik Myiasis Olgusu Duygu Neval Sayın İpek1, Polat İpek2 1Department of Parasitology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Dicle University, Diyarbakır, Turkey 2Livestock Unit, GAP International Agricultural Research and Training Centre, Diyarbakır, Turkey ABSTRACT Lucilia sericata is one of the factors resulting in facultative traumatic myiasis in animals and humans. L. sericata threatens human health and leads to significant economic losses in animal industry by leading to serious parasitic infestations. A three month old female rabbit was presented to the clinics of the Veterinary Faculty of Dicle University for the treatment of the wound located on the left carpal joint. The examination revealed that the wound was infested with larvae. The microscopic inspection of the larvae collected from the rabbit showed that they were the third instar larvae of L. sericata.
