Ophthalmomyiasis from Chrysomyia bezziana (screwworm fly).
269 INTRODUCTION Ophthalmomyiasis refers to infestation of the eye by dipterous fly larvae such as Chrysomyia bezziana. Chrysomyia bezziana is also known as old world screw worm; it is an obligatory parasite of the wound and found mostly in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. The sequelae of ophthalmomyiasis may range from minor irritation to blindness and even death. Treatment of opht...

متن کاملAlternative Diets for Chrysomya putoria, an Old World Screwworm Fly
Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the post-embryonic development of Chrysomya putoria (Wiedemann 1818) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) reared on a diet of gizzard or gizzard/agar homogenate, with a diet of beef used as the control. Four replicates per treatment were performed (60 mL of each diet). The gizzard (60%), distilled water, and agar homogenate were combined in a blender. Ea...
متن کاملMark-recapture estimates of recruitment, survivorship and population growth rate for the screwworm fly, Cochliomyia hominivorax.
Pradel model mark-release-recapture estimates of survivorship, phi, recruitment, f, and the rate of density-independent population growth, lambda, are presented for eight mark-recapture studies of the screwworm Cochliomyia hominivorax (Coquerel) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) from Costa Rica, totalling 19 573 released and 4476 recaptured flies. Corroborative estimates of survivorship and the rate of ...
متن کاملThe Phylogeographic History of the New World Screwworm Fly, Inferred by Approximate Bayesian Computation Analysis
Insect pest phylogeography might be shaped both by biogeographic events and by human influence. Here, we conducted an approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) analysis to investigate the phylogeography of the New World screwworm fly, Cochliomyia hominivorax, with the aim of understanding its population history and its order and time of divergence. Our ABC analysis supports that populations spread...
