چکیده
This study determined the species of parasitoids associated with Chrysomya megacephala, collected on bovine kidney baits, in Itumbiara, State of Goias, Brazil. The pupae were obtained by flotation. They were individually placed in gelatin capsules until the emergence of the adult flies or their parasitoids. The overall prevalence of parasitism was 18.6%. Brachymeria podagrica, Nasonia vitripennis and Pachycrepoideus vindemiae presented frequencies of 8.6%, 8.6% and 1.4%, respectively. This work reports for the first time the occurrence of Brachymeria podagrica in pupae of Chrysomya megacephala.

متن کاملECOLOGY, BEHAVIOR AND BIONOMICS Seasonal Fecundity and Body Size in Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae)
In this study the seasonal variation of fecundity, wing and tibia size was investigated in natural populations of Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) aiming at determining the variations in life history of the species as a function of seasonality. A relative constant temporal trajectory was found for fecundity, wing and tibia size over twelve months. Strong positive correlations between wing size...
