Molecular identification of Dermatobia hominis (Diptera: Oestridae): a neglected agent causing myiasis in Mexico

ABSTRACT Myiasis represents a group of neglected tropical diseases caused by the infestation of vertebrate tissues by dipterous larvae. We herein report an imported case of foruncular myasis caused by Dermatobia hominis in Mexico City. The species was confirmed by DNA sequencing and phylogenetic reconstruction analysis.
