Infestation of humans and non-human primates with Cordylobia rodhaini (Diptera: Calliphoridae) in a ‘hotspot’ of furuncular myiasis [PDF]
ParasitologyLund’s fly, Cordylobia rodhaini (Calliphoridae), is an African blowfly considered to be an uncommon cause of furuncular myiasis. Far less is known about C. rodhaini than about the more frequently reported tumbu fly, Cordylobia anthropophaga. From 2011 to

Study of proteolytic bacteria isolated from the blowfly (Chrysomya megacephala)
Jurnal Biologi Udayana, 2022 Blowfly (Chrysomya megacephala) is an insect that has an important ecological role, one of which is as a decomposer. Blowfly is often found around food and garbage, especially those protein-rich.

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2017 Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are being investigated for the control of various human parasites. Here we investigate their potential as insecticides for the control of a major ecto-parasite of sheep, the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina.
