<p class="MDPI13authornames">The Blowfly <em>Chrysomya megacephala</em> as a Vector of Pathogens Associated with Infectious Diseases

2025-11-20

Abstract excerpt

Chrysomya megacephala is a synanthropic fly with a high potential to act as a mechanical vector of pathogenic bacteria, surpassing Musca domestica in both bacterial load and diversity. Native to Asia and Africa, it has become a cosmopolitan species, successfully adapting to a wide range of environments, including natural ecosystems. In Colombia, studies on its role as a vector are limited and have largely relied o...
