| Description: | Among 9 specimens of D. hominis (L. Jr.) born in the laboratory, an interesting oviposition was observed, probably originating from a single female. Three of the egg-layings were deposited on a piece of a dry vegetable, with a total of 96 eggs; at least two more layings were observed on the abdomen and head of a male Dermatobia, with a total of 74 eggs, and 8 additional eggs on the abdomen of another female Dermatobia. A comment on the possibility of warble fly transmission starting from eggs fortitiously deposited by this cuterebrid on fixed objects is made. |
