The Oriental Latrine Fly, Chrysomya megacephala

Blow flies help decompose animals but can also be considered pests. The oriental latrine fly, Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius), is an invasive blow fly species recently documented in Tennessee. This fly is a concern because it is known to carry antibiotic-resistant strains of multiple pathogens and other harmful bacteria.

Analysis of the Effect of Cyclophosphamide and Methotrexate on Chrysomya megacephala (Diptera: Calliphoridae),

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2018
AbstractForensic entomotoxicology investigates the effects of chemical substances in the development of scavenger insects and the reflection on estimating the minimum postmortem interval (PMI). To evaluate the impact of the chemotherapeutic drugs cyclophosphamide (CF) and methotrexate (MTX) on the postembryonic development of Chrysomya megacephala ...

Ultrastructure of larvae and puparia of the blowfly Chrysomya megacephala (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2012
AbstractChrysomya megacephala is a forensic important fly, and its immature forms also cause myiasis. The adults are the first insects to reach a carcass and can oviposit just a few hours after arrival. Therefore, the knowledge of immature stages of flies is essential for correct identification of the species found on corpses.

Blowfly, Chrysomya megacephala as an alternative specimen in determination of gunshot residue

2012 IEEE Symposium on Business, Engineering and Industrial Applications, 2012
Forensic investigation usually deals with cases involving firearms. Deposition produced on hands and clothes after firearm shooting known as gunshot residue (GSR) is the primary marker, besides the presence of bullet and bullet wound, to prove that a suspect has fired a gun.

[Effect of ketamine on the development of Chrysomya megacephala (Diptera : Calliphoridae)].

Zhongguo ji sheng chong xue yu ji sheng chong bing za zhi = Chinese journal of parasitology & parasitic diseases, 2013
To research the pattern of larvae and pupae development when exposed to ketamine.The larvae of Chrysomya megacephala were reared in artificial diet containing ketamine with concentration of 0, 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg respectively at 32 degrees C, 28 degrees C and 24 degrees C in environmental chamber with a 12-h photoperiod and 75% humidity.

Disruption of Chrysomya megacephala growth caused by lignan grandisin.

Journal of medical entomology, 2009
The toxicity of tetrahydrofuran lignan grandisin was evaluated against larvae of Chrysomya megacephala F. (Diptera: Calliphoridae). The bioassay involved topical treatment on larvae, topical treatment on egg masses, and incorporation in the larval diet.

Laboratory Colonization of the Blow Flies, Chrysomya megacephala (Diptera: Calliphoridae) and Chrysomya rufifacies (Diptera: Calliphoridae).

Journal of economic entomology, 2017
Chrysomya megacephala (F.) and Chrysomya rufifacies (Macquart) were colonized so that larval growth rates could be compared. Colonies were also established to provide insight into the protein needs of adult C. rufifacies and developmental rates of the ensuing larvae. The C. megacephala and C.
