Abstract

abstract: This is the first report of nasopharyngeal myiasis by the larvae of Cephenemyia jellisoni infecting white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) from tropical dry forests in central Mexico. This study was conducted on hunted male deer within 2 wildlife management units located in the states of Puebla and Oaxaca. Bot fly larvae prevalence in both populations was 50% (95% CI: 21–78%, n = 12) with a median intensity of 4 (95% CI: 3–7). We recommend the implementation of a surveillance program at management units and the monitoring of female deer to determine differential gender effects.

栖息在墨西哥中部热带干燥森林的白尾鹿鼻蝇（Cephenemyia jellisoni）的首次报告

本文首次报道了墨西哥中部热带干燥森林白尾鹿(Odocoileus virginianus)感染杰利索氏头孢菌(Cephenemyia jellisoni)幼虫感染鼻咽蝇病的病例。本研究是在位于普埃布拉州和瓦哈卡州的2个野生动物管理单位内对被猎杀的公鹿进行的。两个种群的蝇蛆患病率均为50% (95% CI: 21 ~ 78%， n = 12)，中位强度为4 (95% CI: 3 ~ 7)。我们建议在管理单位实施监测计划，并对雌鹿进行监测，以确定不同性别的影响。

期刊介绍： Comparative Parasitology (continuing the Journal of the Helminthological Society of Washington in its 67th volume) focuses on parasitological research of a comparative nature, emphasizing taxonomy, systematics, ecology, biogeography, evolution, faunal survey, and biological inventory within a morphological and/or molecular context. The scope of Comparative Parasitology extends to all parasitic faunas, including helminths, protistans and arthropods.
