Survey on sarcophagidae species at a poultry farm in Hulu Langat, Selangor
A survey of flies was conducted at a poultry farm in Hulu Langat, Selangor. A total of 2,037 flies specimens were collected which comprised of member of Calliphoridae (296.5±40.7), Muscidae (27.0±10.2) and Sarcophagidae (16.2±6.1). Mean number of flies captured in the morning session was 390.0±92...

Mean number of flies captured in the morning session was 390.0±92.9 while a lower mean number of flies was recorded (289.0±59.9) in the evening session. Calliphoridae flies recorded the highest catch in both morning (323.0±69.0) and afternoon session (270.0±52.9), followed by Muscidae (44.7±10.8 and 9.3±2.2) and Sarcophagidae (22.3±14.2 and 9.7±4.9).

This family comprised of Amobia erythrura, Sarcophaga dux, Sarcophaga misera, Sarcophaga princeps and Sarcophaga taenionota which were confirmed by morphological and C0II gene identification.

A survey of flies was conducted at a poultry farm in Hulu Langat, Selangor. A total
of 2,037 flies specimens were collected which comprised of member of
Calliphoridae (296.5±40.7), Muscidae (27.0±10.2) and Sarcophagidae (16.2±6.1).
Mean number of flies captured in the morning session was 390.0±92.9 while a lower
mean number of flies was recorded (289.0±59.9) in the evening session.
Calliphoridae flies recorded the highest catch in both morning (323.0±69.0) and
afternoon session (270.0±52.9), followed by Muscidae (44.7±10.8 and 9.3±2.2) and
Sarcophagidae (22.3±14.2 and 9.7±4.9). The population of flies did not show
significant different between the sampling times except for Muscidae flies. Flies
from the three families were found abundant in the vacant area than the dumping
area and feeding area. However, the mean number of flies from the three families
recorded in these sampling areas did not show significant difference. Three sampling
methods were used for sampling, the net bottle bait trap captured the highest number
of specimens, followed by handpicking method and aquarium method. The net bottle
bait trap could trap 4 times and 1 time more Calliphoridae than the handpicking and
aquarium methods respectively. It also trapped 4 times and 30 times more Muscidae
and Sarcophagidae than other methods. A detail study was carried out on the genus
of Sarcophagidae flies. This family comprised of Amobia erythrura, Sarcophaga
dux, Sarcophaga misera, Sarcophaga princeps and Sarcophaga taenionota which
were confirmed by morphological and C0II gene identification. These species had
scored 100% bootstrap percentage value when compared to other reference species in
the GenBank. Among the Sarcophagidae species, S. dux was abundant (5.8±2.3) in
the poultry farm, followed by S. princeps (5.0±1.8), S. misera (2.5±1.2), S. taenionota (2.5±1.1) and A. erythrura (0.2±0.2). It also scored the highest mean
number of specimen captured in both morning and afternoon sessions at different
sampling areas using different sampling methods. S. princeps became the second
abundant fly and A. Erythrura became the least abundant fly recorded in all
parameters tested. No significant different was found among the Sarcophagidae flies
when sampling at different sampling times with different sampling areas. The
handpicking method was the best sampling method to capture Sarcophagidae species.
Calliphoridae, Muscidae and Sarcophagidae are reported to have transmitted diseases
to domesticated animals and human. Control measure should be taken as these flies
were found easily in the poultry farm. |
