The knowledge of Dexiinae and Tachinidae diversity in the Neotropical Region, in contrast to other regions, e.g., the Palaearctic Region, is in a poor condition. The history of these taxa has gradually increased since the 18th Century from the works of European and North American authors such as Johan C. Fabricius, Christian R.W. Wiedemann, Jean B. Robineau-Desvoidy, Pierre J.-M. Macquart, Jacques M.F. Bigot, Francis Walker, Victor von Röeder, Ermanno Giglio-Tos, Friedrich M. Brauer and Julius E. Bergenstamm, Frederik M. van der Wulp, Charles H. Curran, John M. Aldrich, Charles H.T. Townsend, Henry J. Reinhard and William R. Thompson. It was only in the first half of the 20th Century that scientists born or established in South America began to enter tachinidology. Dipterists like Jean Brèthes and Everardo E. Blanchard from Argentina, Rául E. Cortés Peña from Chile and José H. Guimarães from Brazil, are the most memorable names for, not only to Neotropical Dexiinae, but, indeed for the whole family. Herein, a brief chronological review of tachinidology, with emphasis on Dexiinae and based on a literature review, is given. The history is divided into four periods: the pre-Linnaean period of the 16th and 17th Centuries, the 18th Century, the 19th Century and the first half of the 20th Century. After the first half of 20th Century, the emphasis is focused on European and North American dipterists with an overview of their contributions on Dexiinae taxonomy. Later, with presence of the South American dipterists, the emphasis is directed to them. Then a few notes are given on the Czech Dominik Bilimek, a poorly known collector from the 19th Century and Fritz Plaumann, a well-known German immigrant who collected in Brazil during the earlier 20th Century. Finally, some notes and perspectives about the 21st Century dexiinidology from the Neotropics is briefly discussed.

Abstract Roraima is a Brazilian state located in the northern portion of the Amazon basin, with few studies regarding its biodiversity. The Ecological Station of Maracá (Brazil, state of Roraima) harbors the third largest Brazilian pluvial island and is composed of a transitional landscape of savanna and Amazon rainforest components. Despite its ecological importance and strategic localization, few studies covered the dipterofauna of this locality. An updated checklist addressing 41 families of true flies (Diptera) occurring in Roraima is presented based on the literature and the specimens collected during a field expedition that occurred in 2015. This checklist brings several improvements such as new records of 165 taxa to the state of Roraima, 29 taxa to Brazil, and 259 morphotypes, mostly likely representing undescribed species.

Fly infestations if not properly controlled can drastically reduce the productivity of animals and harm human health. The emergence of resistant insects leads to novel pharmacological bases research on medicinal plants with high insecticidal activity. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the larvicidal effect of the ethanolic extract of Hyptis suaveolens (L) Poit (Lamiaceae) leaves on the third larval stage (L3) of Cochliomyia hominivorax and Musca domestica. According to the results, the ethanolic extract of H. suaveolens in the concentrations of 1.0%, 10%, 100%, and 1000% did not present effective biological activity on third-stage larvae of Cochliomyia hominivorax and Musca domestica.

This work reports the larvicidal action of two formulations of Amanita muscaria against Musca domestica. Two methods of extraction were tested: an aqueous extract from dried, powdered basidiomes (DPB); and an extract from fresh basidiomes liquefied in water (FLB). The mortality caused by the DPB extract varied from 14.67% to 100%. The efficiency of the FLB extract varied from 10.67% to 89.33%. The mean lethal concentration (LC50) of the DPB extract was approximately 1,931.02 ppm, whereas the LC50 for the FLB extract was about 30%. The extracted substances from these methods did not interfere with the development period of immatures and did not influence pupal weight. These results show the potential of A. muscaria extracts for controlling M. domestica.

Nos sistemas modernos de produção de ovos, as aves poedeiras são alojadas em altas densidades, acumulando esterco sob as gaiolas. Esse substrato é excelente para o desenvolvimento de moscas sinantrópicas. Sendo assim, se torna essencial a realização de levantamentos de moscas nesses locais, a fim de se planejar uma melhor estratégia de controle. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo estudar a entomofauna e a sazonalidade das espécies de dípteros da granja Crisdan, em São João da Boa Vista, São Paulo, Brasil. No período de janeiro de 2001 a dezembro de 2002 foram capturados 1.012.595 exemplares utilizando-se armadilha "jug-trap". As espécies identificadas foram: Drosophila repleta (Wollaston, 1858), Musca domestica (Linnaeus, 1758), Ophyra spp., Hermetria illucens (Linnaeus, 1758), Fannia canicularis (Linnaeus, 1761), Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius, 1794) e Sepsidae. Com maior freqüência D. repleta e M. domestica representaram 99,47% dos dípteros capturados. A elevação dos índices pluviométricos em alguns meses dos anos influenciaram a amostragem de dípteros (PModern production systems accommodate broody hens in high densities, leading to the accumulation of excrement under the cages. This substrate is excellent for the development of sinantropic flies. Thus, the accomplishment of surveys in these places becomes essential, in order to plan better strategies of control. The present work aimed at studying the entomofauna and the seasonality of the species of dipterous present in the Crisdan poultry house located in the Municipality of São João da Boa Vista, the State of São Paulo, Brazil.

O potencial da armadilha adultrap® para captura de dípteros muscoides foi avaliado por comparação com a armadilha descrita por Ferreira (1978) e adaptada por Fraga e d' Almeida (2005). Iscas de sardinha foram utilizadas em ambas as armadilhas. O teste de Wilcoxon para duas amostras não pareadas foi empregado para comparação das armadilhas. Capturou-se um total de 8.909 dípteros muscoides, sendo 57,51% desses pela adultrap®, mas sem diferença significativa (p = 0,147) entre as armadilhas. Do total de sarcofagídeos, califorídeos, muscídeos e de outras famílias de dípteros muscoides 79, 68, 29 e 31%, respectivamente, foram capturados pela adultrap® com diferença estatística (p = 0,002) entre as armadilhas apenas para a família Sarcophagidae. Os resultados da adultrap® foram similares ao modelo modificado por Fraga e d' Almeida (2005). Entretanto, adultrap® foi mais eficiente na captura de dípteros da família Sarcophagidae.The potential of adultrap® for capture of muscoid dipterans was evaluated by comparison with the trap described by Ferreira (1978) and adapted by Fraga and d' Almeida (2005). Sardine baits were used in both traps. The Wilcoxon two-sample test was used for trap comparison. A total of 8,909 muscoid dipterans was caught, 57.51% of them by the adultrap®. However, there was no significant difference (p = 0.147) between trap efficiency. From the total of sarcophagids, calliphorids, muscids and other families of muscoid flies, 79, 68, 29 and 31% were caught by adultrap®, respectively. Statistical difference (p = 0.002) between traps was found only for Sarcophagidae. The results of adultrap® were similar to the model used by Fraga and d'Almeida (2005), thus validating its use for seasonal fluctuation studies of muscoid dipterans. However, adultrap® has the highest efficiency in capturing Sarcophagidae flies.

FRUGIVORES , *FLIES , *PARASITOIDS , *FRUIT diseases & pests - Abstract
Frugivorous flies (Tephritoidea) are the main pests in temperate-zone fruit crop in Brazil. The objective of this research is to evaluate the infestation of these flies and the incidence of their parasitoids in fruit trees from 2007/08 and 2008/9 crops in Pelotas and in Capão do Leão, located in the south of Rio Grande do Sul. Fruits were collected from yellow guava and red guava (Psidium cattleianum Sabine, 1821), pindo palm [Butia capitata (Mart.) Becc., 1916], persimmon (Diospyros kaki Linnaeus, 1753), wild cherry (Eugenia involucrata DC., 1828), guava [Psidium guajava (Linnaeus, 1753)], feijoa tree [Acca sellowiana (Berg.) Burret, 1941], medlar [Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindley, 1822], peach [Prunus persicae (L.) Batsch, 1801], surinam cherry (Eugenia uniflora Linnaeus,1753) and (Eugenia pyriformis Cambessèdes, 1832). The fruit was collected and transported to the laboratory, where the following parameters were individually determined: fly infestation rate, parasitism rate, and its frequency per parasitoid specie. It was found two species of Tephritidae, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann, 1830) (90.5%) and Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann, 1824) (9.5%) and two of Lonchaeidae, Neosilba zadolicha McAlpine & Steyskal, 1982 (87.8%) and a species not yet described, called Neosilba n. sp. 3 (12.2%). Anastrepha fraterculus is the most abundant species in the two cities and it was detected in most fruit crops collected. The persimmon and the guava were the hosts that showed the highest index of C. capitata infestation. Regarding to the species of Neosilba, the highest infestation occurred in fruits of feijoa tree. From the emerged parasitoids, it was identified three species two of Braconidae, Doryctobracon areolatus (Szépligeti, 1911) (52.6%) and Opius bellus (Gahan, 1930) (27.5%) and a species of Figitidae, Aganaspis pelleranoi (Brèthes, 1924) (20.0%). Doryctobracon areolatus was the most frequent parasitoid in most sampled fruit trees, except for surinam cherry and wild cherry, where O. bellus was predominant and for peach, A. pelleranoi.

Orientador: Patrícia Jacqueline Thyssen Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Biologia Resumo: As feridas, definidas como um quadro de ruptura da estrutura anatômica da pele, podem ser classificadas em crônicas ou agudas. As crônicas, cada vez mais frequentes, causam morbidade, amputações e podem, até mesmo, resultar em mortalidade. O tratamento das feridas que não cicatrizam tem sido um grande desafio no campo médico atualmente. Vários estudos e registros hospitalares ao redor do mundo têm mostrado que a Terapia Larval (TL) pode ser uma promissora opção para o tratamento de feridas de diversas etiologias, em especial aquelas pouco ou não responsivas às terapias convencionais. Além do desbridamento e da remoção do tecido desvitalizado, as larvas podem promover a desinfecção da ferida, através da liberação de componentes antimicrobianos de suas exossecreções (ESs), e estimular a formação do tecido de granulação. A investigação de ações bactericidas e/ou bacteriostáticas dos fluídos produzidos por moscas necrófagas tem sido impulsionada devido à emergência de bactérias multirresistentes. Levando em consideração que larvas de moscas são, por vezes, difíceis de serem transportadas até os locais onde serão aplicadas nos pacientes e, adicionalmente, podem exigir um certo treinamento, por parte dos profissionais da área da saúde para aplicação, o uso das ESs são uma solução bastante promissora para minimizar estes problemas. Assim, no presente estudo objetivou-se: (i) avaliar in vitro a estabilidade das ESs de larvas de Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius) sob diferentes condições de armazenamento levando em conta o tempo de extração (0, 7 e 14 dias) e a temperatura em que foram mantidas (ambiente, 10ºC, -20ºC e -80ºC) para inibir o crescimento de Staphyloccocus aureus e Pseudomonas aeruginosa, bactérias frequentemente encontradas em feridas de difícil cicatrização; (ii) avaliar in vivo distintas abordagens para o tratamento de feridas tais como: por TL clássica (isto é, a partir do uso de larvas), por ESs larvais de C. macellaria, e por papaína em gel. As ESs estéreis e com concentração de 0,1 mg/mL de proteínas foram obtidas de larvas de terceiro estádio mantidas em laboratório. Nos ensaios turbidométricos a 37ºC, as densidades óticas (DO540) foram aferidas a cada uma hora no intervalo de 0-6h e após 24h. As ESs apresentaram propriedades termoestáveis, que facilitam a viabilização de estudos clínicos randomizados e dão subsídios para o desenvolvimento de um agente tópico para tratar feridas. O experimento in vivo confirmou o potencial terapêutico do uso de larvas e ESs de C. macellaria no tratamento de feridas infectadas. Futuros isolamentos e caracterizações dos componentes cicatrizantes e antimicrobianos das ESs são promissores para que a TL constitua uma opção de tratamento, com maior aceitação por parte dos profissionais da saúde e dos pacientes Abstract: Wounds, defined as a breakdown of the anatomical structure of the skin, can be classified as chronic or acute. Increasingly frequent chronic conditions cause morbidity, amputations and may even result in mortality. The treatment of non-healing wounds has been a major challenge in the medical field today. Several studies and hospital registries around the world have shown that Larval Therapy (TL) may be a promising option for the treatment of wounds of diverse etiologies, especially those that are unresponsive to conventional therapies. In addition to debridement and removal of devitalized tissue, larvae may promote wound disinfection by releasing antimicrobial components from their exosecretions (ESs), and stimulating the granulation tissue formation. The investigation of bactericidal and/or bacteriostatic actions of fluids produced by necrophagous flies has been boosted due to the emergence of multiresistant bacteria. Taking into account that fly larvae are sometimes difficult to transport to the places where they will be applied in the patients and, additionally, may require a certain training, from the health professionals for application, there are in the ESs a very promising solution to minimize these problems. Thus, in the present study the objective was to: (i) evaluate in vitro the stability of the ESs of Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius) larvae under different storage conditions taking into account the extraction time (0, 7 and 14 days) and the temperature at which they were (environment, 10 ° C, -20 ° C and -80 ° C) to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, bacteria frequently found in wounds that are difficult to heal; (ii) to evaluate in vivo different approaches for the treatment of wounds such as: by classical TL (ie, from the use of larvae), by ES larvae of C. macellaria, and by papain gel. ES were obtained from early third-instar maggots, sterilized and tested in 96-microplate Turbidometric assay (OD540) against S. aureus (ATCC 25923) and P.aeruginosa (ATCC 27853). Readings were done at 0h, 1h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 5h, 6h and 24h after incubation at 37°C. C. macellaria maggot¿s ES with 0,1 mg/mL total protein concentrations were tested. The ESs presented thermostable properties, which facilitate the viability of randomized clinical studies and give subsidies for the development of a topical agent to treat wounds. The in vivo experiment confirmed the therapeutic potential of the use of C. macellaria larvae and ESs in the treatment of infected wounds. Future isolation and characterization of the healing and antimicrobial components of ESs are promising for TL to be a treatment option, with greater acceptance by health professionals and patients Mestrado Relações Antrópicas, Meio Ambiente e Parasitologia Mestra em Biologia Animal CAPES 001

The Diptera are one of the largest orders of Insecta. For this study were chosen two superfamilies among the Calyptratae, represented by the families Muscidae, Fanniidae, Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae. These dipterans stand out due to their potential to carry etiological agents of various animal and human diseases, and are importants in the estimation of IPM in Forensic Entomology science, and in the identification of the degree of human interference in natural environments. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of spatial and environmental variables on Diptera taxocenosis throughout the state of Paraíba, as well as to contribute to the knowledge of Sarcophagidae in the Brazilian Northeast. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of spatial and environmental variables on Diptera taxocenosis throughout the state of Paraíba, as well as to contribute to the knowledge of Sarcophagidae in the Brazilian Northeast. For this, in the rainy season, eight areas within the Atlantic Forest and Caatinga domains were sampled. They used traps made with pets baited with human feces, banana, sardines and bovine viscera. The traps were distributed in ten sets of four traps, spaced 100 meters in each area. In order to evaluate the relative importance of spacial scales was used Additive partitioning of diversity and the similarity of the areas by using Jaccard and Morisita index. Were used three environmental variables, together geographical coordinates, to explain the variation of the species composition, calculated throught Partial Redundancy Analysis. In total 23,362 individuals belonging 56 species were collected. Was added ten new occurrence records at the Paraíba and three at the Northeast. The results showed that the taxocenosis of dipterans in the Paraíba receives a little influence of environmental variables and, practically, none of the spatial variables. Furthermore, the variation of its diversity did not increase according to spatial scale size, probably due to the high dispersion capacity inherent in the group. For the purpose of to contribute to a better knowledge of the Sarcophagidae of the Northeast, the specimens belonging to the collection of the Entomological Collection of the Department of Systematics and Ecology (DSEC) of the Federal University of Paraíba were reviewed and tagged, resulting in a checklist of the Sarcophagidae from Paraíba. The collection currently has 2,535 sarcophagidae (1,680 females and 855 males) from 31 species distributed in 14 genera, all belonging to the subfamily Sarcophaginae, from 15 municipalities. This checklist of species contributes significantly to the knowledge of Brazilian and Neotropical Sarcophagidae. Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES Os Diptera constituem uma das maiores ordens de Insecta. Para o presente estudo foram escolhidas duas superfamílias dentre os Calyptratae, representadas pelas famílias Muscidae, Fanniidae, Calliphoridae e Sarcophagidae. Estes dípteros se destacam devido seu potencial de carrearem agentes etiológicos de diversas doenças dos animais e do homem, nas estimativas de IPM no âmbito da entomologia forense e na identificação do grau de interferência humana em ambientes naturais. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a influência das variáveis espaciais e ambientais sobre as taxocenose de Diptera, ao longo de todo o estado Paraíba, assim como, contribuir para o conhecimento dos Sarcophagidae do Nordeste brasileiro. Para tanto, foram realizadas coletas, no período chuvoso, em oito áreas, dentro dos domínios da Floresta Atlântica e Caatinga. Foram utilizadas armadilhas confeccionadas com garrafas pets iscadas com fezes humanas, banana, sardinha e vísceras bovinas. As armadilhas foram distribuídas em dez conjuntos de quatro armadilhas, espaçados 100 metros, em cada área. Para avaliar a importância relativa das escalas espaciais foi empregada a partição aditiva da diversidade e a similaridade das áreas avaliadas por meio dos índices de Jaccard e Morisita. Foram utilizadas três variáveis ambientais, juntamente com as coordenadas geográficas, para explicar a variação da composição de espécies, calculada por meio da Análise de Redundância Parcial. Foram coletadas 23.362 moscas, distribuídas em pelo menos 56 espécies, acrescentando 10 novos registros de ocorrência para Paraíba, dos quais, três também configuram novo registro para o Nordeste. A distribuição da taxocenose dos Diptera estudados recebe pouca influência de variáveis ambientais e, praticamente, nenhuma das variáveis espaciais. A variação de sua diversidade não aumentou conforme o tamanho da escala espacial, provavelmente, pela alta capacidade de dispersão inerente ao grupo. A fim de contribuir para um maior conhecimento dos Sarcophagidae do Nordeste foi feita, também, a revisão e tombamento dos espécimes pertencentes ao acervo da Coleção Entomológica do Departamento de Sistemática e Ecologia (DSEC) da Universidade Federal da Paraíba, resultando num checklist dos Sarcophagidae do estado. A coleção conta, atualmente, com 2.535 sarcofagídeos (1.680 fêmeas e 855 machos) de 31 espécies distribuídas em 14 gêneros, todos pertencentes à subfamília Sarcophaginae, provenientes de 15 municípios. Desta forma, este trabalho vem contribuir, também, para o melhor conhecimento dos sarcofágideos brasileiros e neotropicais.

The use of essential oils with insecticidal activity has been widely studied, providing a new treatment alternative, since conventional synthetic insecticides, due to their toxic potential and indiscriminate use have caused an increase of resistant species, causing significant damages to human and animals health.In this context, the use of essential oils can contribute significantly to the control of insects.The objective of this work was to investigate the insecticidal activity of the essential oil of Pelargonium graveolens against two species of flies.For this, larvicidal tests were performed, using four concentrations of oil (2.5%, 5%, 10% and 20%), a negative control with Tween-80 and a positive control containing Diazinon.The adulticidal tests were performed using impregnated paper and topical application techniques, both with concentrations of 1%, 2.5%, 5% and 10%, acetone and Diazinon as negative and positive controls, respectively.The repellency test was also performed with the difference of 1% of the essential movement, 1% Tween-80 as a positive control and 1% Diazinon as positive control.All tests were performed in triplicate. The essential oil of P. graveolens did not present larvicidal potential on the two species of insects.In the adulticidal test of the impregnated paper, a 100% mortality at 120 minutes was observed in M. domestica and in L. cuprina the 1% concentration was effective at 60 minutes, killing 100% of the flies.In 120 minutes of superficial application test the essential oil in the 5% concentration presented 100% mortality for M. domestica and for L. cuprina, the essential oil 5% and 10% presented mortalities of 96% and 100% in 45 minutes, respectively.The essential oil of P. graveolens (1%) presented a repellent effect.Thus, P. graveolens oil can be used as a form of natural control of M. domestica and L. cuprina, reducing the use of chemical insecticides commonly used to control these dipterous. A utilização dos óleos essenciais com atividade inseticida tem sido amplamente estudada, proporcionando uma nova alternativa de tratamento, uma vez que os inseticidas sintéticos convencionais, devido ao seu potencial tóxico e uso indiscriminado têm provocado um aumento de espécies resistentes, causando significativos danos à saúde do homem e dos animais. Neste contexto, o uso de óleos essenciais pode contribuir significantemente para o controle de insetos. Este trabalho teve o objetivo de investigar a atividade inseticida do óleo essencial de Pelargonium graveolens frente a duas espécies de moscas. Para isso, foram realizados ensaios larvicidas, utilizando quatro concentrações do óleo (2,5%, 5%, 10% e 20%), um controle negativo com tween-80 e um controle positivo contendo diazinon. Os ensaios adulticidas foram realizados utilizando as técnicas de exposição ao papel impregnado e aplicação tópica, ambos, com concentrações de 1%, 2,5%, 5% e 10%, acetona e Diazinon como controles negativo e positivo, respectivamente. Também foi realizado o teste de repelência com concentração de 1% do óleo essencial, tween-80 1% como controle negativo e Diazinon 1% como controle positivo. Todos os testes foram realizados em triplicata. O óleo essencial de P. graveolens não apresentou potencial larvicida sobre as duas espécies de insetos. No teste adulticida do papel impregnado foi observado mortalidade de 100% aos 120 minutos em M. domestica e em L. cuprina a concentração 1% foi eficaz aos 60 minutos matando 100% das moscas. Em 120 minutos de teste de aplicação superficial o óleo essencial na concentração 5% apresentou mortalidade de 100% para M. domestica e para L. cuprina, o óleo essencial 5% e 10% apresentaram mortalidades de 96% e 100% em 45 minutos, respectivamente. O óleo essencial de P. graveolens (1%) apresentou efeito repelente. Diante disso, o óleo de P. graveolens pode ser utilizado como uma forma de controle natural de M. domestica e L. cuprina, reduzindo o uso de inseticidas químicos comumente utilizados para o controle desses dípteros.

Wing geometric morphometry as a tool for the identification of three calliphorid (Diptera: Calliphoridae) species at the Brazilian Cerrado Abstract. Chrysomya albiceps (Weidemann), Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) and Hemilucilia segmentaria (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) are among the fly species of forensic interest commonly found in Brazil. The correct identification of the specimen, or fragment of a specimen, collected at a crime scene is a crucial step for the use of forensic entomology as a tool in criminal investigations. In this study, the discrimination of these three species of Calliphoridae based on wing morphology, by means of geometric morphometric analysis was investigated. Right wings of 139 specimens were analyzed, 55 C. albiceps , 42 C. megacephala e 42 H. segmentaria , through Canonical Variate Analysis, Discriminant Analysis and Cross Validation tests. Of the 278 pairwise comparison, six misidentifications were recorded for discriminant analysis (2.1%), while 22 (7.9 %) misclassification for cross-validation tests, which points to a high technical reliability index. More studies are needed to validate this technique for use in forensic practice.

Nesse sentido, através da modelagem matemática a partir de grafos, utilizando biclusters e árvores de decisão, buscou-se encontrar padrões na ocorrência de dípteros necrófagos coletados em três diferentes áreas (rural, urbana e mata) e com três diferentes iscas (sardinha, fígado e carne moída) na cidade de Rio Claro-SP. A partir dos algoritmos (InClose e RInClose – biclusters, C4.5 – árvores de decisãoatravés da análise dos biclusters, podemos destarcar, por exemplo, aqueles que relacionaram Atherigona orientalis (Schiner) e Musca domestica Linnaeus em todos os ambientes de coleta, menos na área de floresta, provavelmente devido ao fato de serem espécies conhecidas por sua preferência por áreas habitadas pelo homem. Por outro lado, mesmo sendo espécies que possui alta dependência pela antropobiocenose, outros biclusters indicaram uma associação entre Lucilia eximia (Wiedemann) e Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) ocorrendo com maior frequência na floresta, atraídas pelas iscas de carne ou fígado, já conhecidas pela sua importância na atratividade de califorídeos. Isso pode ser explicado devido ao crescimento urbano ocorrido ao redor da floresta estudada, dando-lhe características próprias de local habitado pelo homem. No que se refere às árvores de decisão, foram obtidas no total 19 árvores de decisão (sendo 8 para a família Sarcophagidae, 4 para Muscidae e 7 para Calliphoridae) e a partir delas pode-se detectar vários padrões como: A. orientalis, Synthesiomyia nudiseta (Wulp, 1883) e M. domestica estando presente conjuntamente se a estação for Primavera, a isca for sardinha e o local for Urbana. Oxysarcodexia thornax (Walker) foi a única espécie, que para atingir a condição de presença, percorreu somente um nó, a estação Primavera, sendo, portanto, considerada generalista neste estudo, já que as variáveis local e isca foram indiferentes para determinar sua localização. Por tudo isso, considerou-se que os biclusters e as árvores de decisão são ferramentas úteis na estimativa de padrãona relação existentes entre a comunidade de dípteros necrófagos. The pattern recognition in ecological communities is one of the most antique and persistent challenges of ecological science. In this sense, through mathematical modelling from graphs, using biclusters and decision trees, the objective of the present work was to find patterns in the occurrence of necrophagous dipterans collected in three different areas (rural, urban and forest) and with three different baits (sardines, liver and beef) in the city of Rio Claro-SP. Algorithms (InClose and RInClose-biclusters, C 4.5-decision trees) were used to obtain the results. Through the analysis of biclusters, it can be highlighted those that related Atherigona orientalis (Schiner) and Musca domestica Linnaeus in all environments, less forest area, probably due to the fact of being species known for their preference for areas inhabited by humans. On the other hand, even being species possessing high dependence by antropobiocenose, other biclusters indicated an association between Lucilia eximia (Wiedemann) and Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) occurring with greater frequency in the forest, attracted by the bait of meat or liver, both known for their importance in the attractiveness of calliphorid fly. This may be explained due to the population growth occurred around the forest, giving the characteristics of place inhabited by man. With regard to decision trees, were obtained in total 19 decision trees (8 to the family Sarcophagidae, 4 for Muscidade and 7 to Calliphoridae) and from them various patterns can be detected such as: A. orientalis, Synthesiomyia nudiseta (Wulp, 1883) and M. domestica being present together if the season is Spring, the bait is sardines and the location is urban. Oxysarcodexia thornax (Walker) was the only specie in which to achieve the condition of presence, it is necessary to walk only one node (the spring), therefore, it was considered to be generalist in this study, since the local variables and bait were indifferent to determine this location. For all that, it was considered that the decision trees and biclusters are useful tools in the elucidation of existing relationship patterns between the community of dipterans collected.

Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, FAPERGS, Brasil. The parasitism by insects is a matter of great importance in tropical countries, where the climatic conditions favor their development. Among the parasites of importance we can highlight Diptera, such as flies, which because of their degree of sinantropismo are in direct contact with humans and animals. These insects have biontófagos and scavengers habits, highlighting species of Calliphoridae family, which cause economic loss to be veiculadoras of pathogens of major infectious diseases, parasitic and myiasis. Among the blowflies, the Sarconesia chlorogaster species, does not possess wide distribution, is described only in the south of the country and for that reason there are few studies about this insect. In this context, the aim of this study was to verify the action of seven essential oils [cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum), bergamot (Citrus bergamia), cedar (Cedrus atlantica), eucalyptus, ginger (Zingiber officinale), lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris)] against the eggs and larvae of this species of Diptera. To assess the in vitro efficacy was performed immersion test, where the eggs were immersed for five minutes in concentrations of 10, 20 and 40% and the larvae were immersed at 10 and 20%. In ovicidal activity tests, all essential oils showed efficacy greater than 75%, highlighting the thyme which showed 100% efficacy in the three concentrations tested. In larvicidal activity tests, thyme oil, cinnamon, ginger and cedar showed superior efficacy to 75% and bergamot oil, lemon grass and eucalyptus showed efficacy less than 50%. We can conclude that the essential oils can be an effective alternative for the control of diptera. O parasitismo por insetos é um assunto de grande importância nos países tropicais, onde às condições climáticas favorecem o desenvolvimento dos mesmos. Dentre os parasitos de importância podemos destacar dípteros, como as moscas, que devido ao seu grau de sinantropismo estão em contato direto com os seres humanos e animais. Estes insetos possuem hábitos biontófagos e necrófagos, destacando as espécies da família Calliphoridae, que acarretam prejuízo econômico por serem veiculadoras de patógenos causadores de importantes doenças infecciosas, parasitárias e miíases. Dentre os califorídeos, a espécie Sarconesia chlorogaster, não possue ampla distribuição, é descrita somente na região sul do país e por esse motivo existem poucos estudos acerca deste inseto. Neste contexto, o objetivo desse trabalho foi verificar a ação de sete óleos essenciais [canela (Cinnamomum zeylanicum), bergamota (Citrus bergamia), cedro (Cedrus atlantica), eucalipto, gengibre (Zingiber officinale), capim limão (Cymbopogon citratus) e tomilho (Thymus vulgaris)] frente à ovos e larvas dessa espécie de díptero. Para avaliação da eficácia in vitro, foi realizado o teste de imersão, onde os ovos foram imersos por cinco minutos nas concentrações de 10, 20 e 40% e as larvas foram imersas em 10 e 20%. Nos testes de atividade ovicida, todos os óleos essenciais apresentaram eficácia superior a 75%, destacando o tomilho que apresentou eficácia de 100% nas três concentrações testadas. Nos testes de atividade larvicida, os óleos de tomilho, canela, gengibre e cedro apresentaram eficácia superior a 75% e os óleos de bergamota, capim limão e eucalipto apresentaram eficácia inferior a 50%. Podemos concluir que os óleos essenciais testados podem ser uma alternativa eficaz no controle desses dípteros.

Abstract: Fly larvae from the Gasterophilinae subfamily of the Oestridae family are parasites of domestic (equine) and wild (rhinos and equine) odd-hoofed ungulates (Perissodactyla). The gastric parasite of African Rhinos is Gyrostigma rhinocerontis (formerly Gyrostigma pavesii), which in its larva phase can be found in the feces of their hosts and can reach 40mm length. The adult is the largest fly in Africa, reaching 41mm long, with 71-mm wingspan. The Gyrostigma genus does not occur naturally in Brazil. There is one previous report of the occurrence of its larvae in the feces of a white rhino brought from South Africa in the 1990's, which was housed in a zoo located in Rio Grande do Sul. The present paper furnishes data from a zoo of the city of Itatiba, São Paulo state, Brazil, where Gyrostigma rhinocerontis larvae were found in 2005 in the feces of a group of white rhinos (Ceratotherium simum) legally imported from South Africa. The rhinos were kept in a breeding and preservation farm. This paper also reports the measures taken to control the case and avoid the dissemination of the parasite, calling attention to the fact of globalization, which allows international and intercontinental transit of wild animals with potential risks of adaptation of exotic parasites to new ecosystems.

Among the factors that influence the diversity of ectoparasites on bat hosts are the kind of roost and the host's social behavior. Other factors such as sex, reproductive condition and host size may influence the distribution and abundance of ectoparasites. The aim of the present study was to analyze the variation in Streblidae ectoparasites on the bat Phyllostomus hastatus, according to sex and roost type. We caught bats in four houses on Marambaia Island, municipality of Mangaratiba, and in one house at the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro, municipality of Seropédica. We caught 65 females and 50 males of P. hastatus and 664 streblids of four species: Aspidoptera phyllostomatis, Strebla consocia, Trichobius“dugesii” complex and Trichobius longipes. The species T. longipes accounted for more than 99% of all the ectoparasites caught. Female bats were more parasitized than males, in terms of both prevalence and average intensity. The total number of parasites did not vary between resident and non-resident bats. The relationship between the number of individuals of T. longipes and sex and roost type was significant for resident bats. The total number of parasites on males did not differ between bachelor roosts and mixed-sex roosts. The differences found between roosts reflected the differences between the sexes.

A exploração progressiva dos limites da plasticidade no desenvolvimento de padrões instintivos, levou-nos a comparar a ontogênese do comportamento de limpeza corporal em moscas, submetidas a condições diferentes a partir da eclosão. Atenção especial foi dada àquelas variações e constâncias que pudessem revelar o grau de complexidade da organização comportamental nestes insetos. Encontramos evidências de que é justamente a plasticidade do sistema que é selecionada, ou seja, a possibilidade de ajustamento a condições variadas, ao longo da ontogênese. A ocorrência de movimentos no "vazio", o desenvolvimento subseqüente de padrões "substitutivos" e as potenciais alternâncias destas categorias, sob certas circunstâncias, sugeriram várias idéias sobre a ontogênese, aparentemente incompatíveis com uma concepção de organização comportamental simples e estereotipada, mesmo para os padrões instintivos de insetos.

É possível estimar o IPM através do tempo de desenvolvimento da espécie de mosca encontrada em um corpo e identificação correta da espécie, considerando algumas variações abióticas e também outros fatores, sobretudo os de natureza ecológica como a densidade larval e as interações interespecíficas que podem interferir no tempo de desenvolvimento, tamanho, peso das espécies relacionadas, além da própria ocorrência e abundância de espécies. Alterações na composição faunística dos grupos taxonômicos pertencentes ao guilda vem ocorrendo no Brasil em função da introdução de espécies exóticas do gênero Chrysomya, produzindo o deslocamento da espécie nativa Cochliomyia macellaria possivelmente devido às interações com as espécies exóticas. Tais alterações são fenômenos importantes para a base de dados na entomologia forense. O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar se diferentes espécies de presas intraguilda influenciam a força de interações entre predador e presa, considerando diferenças no espaço, no tempo de contato entre presas e predadoras e também na densidade total de indivíduos. Para a realização do estudo larvas de terceiro estádio de Chrysomya albiceps, C. megacephala, C. putoria e Cochliomyia macellaria (Díptera: Calliphoridae), foram confinadas em recipientes plásticos de tamanhos diferentes, em diferentes combinações e densidades. O instante da predação das larvas de C. megacephala, C. putoria e C. macellaria pelas larvas predadoras intraguilda de C. albiceps, foi observado durante... The Forensic entomology is an area os forensic science which uses information on the biology and ecology of insects, mainly necrophagous flies, to estimate the postmortem interval (PMI). It is possible to estimate de PMI through the development time of the fly species found in a body and correct identification of species, considering some abiotic variations and also other factors, particulary those concerning ecology and larval density and interespecific interactions that can interfere with development time, size, weight of related species, besides the occurrence and abundance of species. Changes in faunal composition of the taxa belonging to the guild has beem occurring in Brazil due to the introduction of exotic species of the genus Chrysomya, producing, the displacement of the native Cochliomyia macellaria possibly due to interactions with exotic species. Such changes are important phenomena for the database in fareonsic entomology. The current study aimed to investigate if different intraguild prey species influence the interaction strength between predator and prey, considering differences in space, time of contact between prey and predator and total density of individuals. In order to perform the study, third instar larvae of Chrysomya albiceps, C. megacephala, C. putoria and Cochliomyia macellaria were confined in plastic recipients with different sizes, in different combinations and densities. Larval predation was observed every 15 minutes, during 2 h and also after 24h. The influence of the factors on the predation by C. albiceps, mainly influence of space, was much more visible after 24 h than after 2 h. This result makes evident the importance of the time for the study. The factors space, density and species produced similar results to the previous studies with respect to prey choice, maintaining...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2010-12-01 Agaricus brasiliensis is a Brazilian basidiomycete which has been cultivated and consumed around the world as a therapeutic food. Casing layer is one of the most important steps on A. brasiliensis cultivation and European peat is the most used casing layer on Agaricus bisporus cultivation. Besides the importance of it on mushroom cultivation the peat import could be a risk of exotic organism introduction. Alternative as Brazilian peat is barely used for mushroom growers in Brazil. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate Brazilian peat with and without pasteurization as casing layer on A. brasiliensis cultivation. The fungus was previously grown on wheat grains and transferred to a substratum prepared by composted traditional method. After mycelium colonization of the substratum a pasteurized or non pasteurized Brazilian peat (casing layer) was added. It was concluded that pasteurization of the casing layer increases in 30% yield after 65 days of cultivation. There is no difference of yield for pasteurized and non pasteurized casing layer until 30 days of cultivation. An increase of flies is observed in non pasteurized casing layer. The production flush is easily perceived with pasteurized casing layer but not with non pasteurized casing layer.

O potencial da armadilha adultrap® para captura de dípteros muscoides foi avaliado por comparação com a armadilha descrita por Ferreira (1978) e adaptada por Fraga e d' Almeida (2005). Iscas de sardinha foram utilizadas em ambas as armadilhas. O teste de Wilcoxon para duas amostras não pareadas foi empregado para comparação das armadilhas. Capturou-se um total de 8.909 dípteros muscoides, sendo 57,51% desses pela adultrap®, mas sem diferença significativa (p = 0,147) entre as armadilhas. Do total de sarcofagídeos, califorídeos, muscídeos e de outras famílias de dípteros muscoides 79, 68, 29 e 31%, respectivamente, foram capturados pela adultrap® com diferença estatística (p = 0,002) entre as armadilhas apenas para a família Sarcophagidae. Os resultados da adultrap® foram similares ao modelo modificado por Fraga e d' Almeida (2005). Entretanto, adultrap® foi mais eficiente na captura de dípteros da família Sarcophagidae. The potential of adultrap® for capture of muscoid dipterans was evaluated by comparison with the trap described by Ferreira (1978) and adapted by Fraga and d' Almeida (2005). Sardine baits were used in both traps. The Wilcoxon two-sample test was used for trap comparison. A total of 8,909 muscoid dipterans was caught, 57.51% of them by the adultrap®. However, there was no significant difference (p = 0.147) between trap efficiency. From the total of sarcophagids, calliphorids, muscids and other families of muscoid flies, 79, 68, 29 and 31% were caught by adultrap®, respectively. Statistical difference (p = 0.002) between traps was found only for Sarcophagidae. The results of adultrap® were similar to the model used by Fraga and d'Almeida (2005), thus validating its use for seasonal fluctuation studies of muscoid dipterans. However, adultrap® has the highest efficiency in capturing Sarcophagidae flies.

Abstract The hippoboscids are cosmopolitan permanent obligate hematophagous ectoparasites of birds, domestic and wild mammals and, occasionally, humans. Some species may act as vectors or hosts of etiological pathogenic agents. The aims of this study were to report on the first cases of Hippoboscidae in Crax blumenbachii and Parabuteo unicinctus; to provide new reports from Brazil on Tyto furcata and Asio stygius parasitized by Icosta americana; to report on individuals of Bubo virginianus, Falco sparverius and Accipiter striatus parasitized by genera Ornithoctona; and to provide new reports on parasitism of O. erythrocephala in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The birds of prey and C. blumenbachii were attended at a rehabilitation center in Porto Alegre and at a veterinary hospital in Cruz Alta. These new records demonstrate the huge gap that exists regarding studies on avian ectoparasites and highlight potential vectors of hemoparasites for the bird species studied.

Calliphoridae ,flies ,flight activity ,climatic factors - Abstract
Five species of calliphorid flies, Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius, 1794), C. putoria (Wiedemann, 1830), C. albiceps (Wiedemann. 1819), Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius, 1775) and Phaenicia eximia (Wiedemann, 1819), were collected hourly belween 6:00 and 18:00h., during five consecutive days per month for 12 moths; using home-made traps baited with rotting bovine lung. The data were statisticaly analyzed with relation to precipitation, temperature, relative humidity and luminosity. The results indicate that precipitation must have acted upon the seasonal abundance of the species, and that these responded equally to temperature, relative humidity and luminosity, throughout the entire day, except for P. eximia, which exhibited greater sensibility to these factors, demonstrating greater activity during the morning hours. The geographic expansion of invader species, associated to the tolerance to climatic variations was briefily discussed.

Em uma área urbana do município do Rio de Janeiro, foram criados 10.988 dípteros caliptratos, pertencentes a quatro famílias e 22 espécies. As criações foram efetuadas em quatro etapas durante os anos de 1986 a 1987. Foram utilizados como substratos: peixe, fígado, carcaça de camundongo, fezes humanas e caninas, camarão, siri, banana, manga mamaão e tomate. As espécies criadas com maior freqüência foram: Fania sp (subgrupo pusio), Atherigona orientalis, Phaenicia eximia, Paraphrissopoda chrisostoma, Chrisomyia megacephala, Ophyra solitaria, Musca domestica, Synthesiomyia nudiseta, Phaenicia cuprina, Ophyra aenescens, Sarcophagula occidua, Morellia flavicornis, e Sarcodexia innota. In an urban area of Municipality of rio de Janeiro were bred 10,988 calliptrate flies belonging to 4 families and 22 species. Breeding was effectuated in four steps during the years of 1986 and 1987. It were used as larvae substrate; fish, liver, mouse carcas, human and dog faeces, shrimp, crab, banana, mango, papaya and tomato. The species bred with frequency were: Fannia sp 9sub grouppusio), Atherigona orientalis, Phaenicia eximia, Paraphrissopoda chrysostoma, Chrysomyia megacephala, Ophyra solitaria, Musca domestica, Sarcophagula occidua, Morellia flavicornis e Sarcodexia innota.

No Rio-Zoo, foram criados 7.377 dípteros caliptratos, pertencentes a quatro famílias e 22 espécies. As criações foram efetuadas de agosto de 1987 a abril de 1988. Foram utilizados como substratos de criação: banana, camarão, carcaça de camundongo,fezes caninas, fezes humanas, fígado bovino, lula, mamão, peixe, siri e tomate. As espécies criadas com maior freqüência foram: Fannia sp. (subgrupo pusio), Atherigona orientalis, Chrysomyia megacephala, Phaenicia eximia. Paraphrissopoda chrysosotoma, Ophyra aenescens, Synthesiomyia nudiseta, Ophyra chalcogaster, Oxisarcodexia fluminensis e Hemilucilia segmentaria. Foi efetuado um estudo, ainda que incompleto, das espécies que se desenvolvem em fezes de animais cativos do Rio-Zoo. Dentre as mais freqüentes destacam-se: Fannia sp., Sarcophagula occidua, Ophyra chalgogaster, Ravinia belforti e Phaenicia eximia. In Rio-Zoo 7,377 Callyptrate flies, belonging to 4 families and 22 species were bred, from August 1987 to April 1988. The substrate media used were: banana, shrimp, mouse carcas, dog faeces, human faeces, bovine liver, squid, papaya, fish, crab and tomato. The frequency of the bred species are as follows: Fannia sp. (subgroup pusio), Atherigona orientalis, Chrysomyia megacephala, Phaenicia eximia, Paraphrissopoda chrysostoma, Ophyra genescens, Synthesiomyia nudiseta, Ophyra chalcogaster, Oxysarcodexia fluminensis and Hemilucilia segmentaria. Data concerning the development of the larvae in captive animal faeces is presented. The most prevalent species were Fannia sp., Sarcophagula occidua, Ophyra chalcogaster, Ravinia belforti and Phaenicia eximia.
