| Abstract |
|
Larvae of Lucilia coeruleiviridis Macq. (Phaenicia coeruleiviridis) were discovered causing facultative wound myiasis in the eastern box turtle (Terrapene carolina carolina) in Maryland. Eight larvae were recovered from a puncture wound in the turtle's body wall near the head. Adult flies emerged after a pupal period of 7 days. The turtle subsequently died.
