Far less is known about\n                    <jats:italic>C. rodhaini<\/jats:italic>\n                    than about the more frequently reported tumbu fly,\n                    <jats:italic>Cordylobia anthropophaga<\/jats:italic>\n                    . From 2011 to 2020, fly larvae were collected and analysed from 11 independent infestations of wild non-human primates and 10 independent infestations of humans (including 1 from this author) in Kibale National Park, Uganda. All 21 larvae were identified morphologically and genetically as\n                    <jats:italic>C. rodhaini<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Larvae from non-human primates were on average 4\u00b75 times larger than larvae from humans. Non-human primates had empty furuncles, indicating recent egress of mature third instar larvae and completion of the larval stage of the lifecycle; however, eastern chimpanzees (\n                    <jats:italic>Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) were photographed removing larvae from furuncles of grooming partners. A total of 4 closely related mitochondrial haplotypes were identified, 2 of which were shared by larvae from humans and non-human primates. Genetic variation within\n                    <jats:italic>C. rodhaini<\/jats:italic>\n                    from this single location was comparable to that within other calliphorid species. Non-human primates may play a larger role in the maintenance of\n                    <jats:italic>C. rodhaini<\/jats:italic>\n                    than previously known, and in certain forested locations\n                    <jats:italic>C. rodhaini<\/jats:italic>\n                    may be the predominant cause of furuncular myiasis.

In general, these findings shed new light on how myiasis-causing flies can adapt to different ecological settings and be regionally rare but locally abundant.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0031182025100875","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,29]],"date-time":"2025-09-29T10:35:39Z","timestamp":1759142139000},"page":"1275-1281","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Infestation of humans and non-human primates with\n                    <i>Cordylobia rodhaini<\/i>\n                    (Diptera: Calliphoridae) in a \u2018hotspot\u2019 of furuncular myiasis"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"152","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3962-4913","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tony L.","family":"Goldberg","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,29]]},"container-title":["Parasitology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0031182025100875","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,3]],"date-time":"2026-02-03T10:47:29Z","timestamp":1770115649000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0031182025100875\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,29]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,10]]}},"alternative-id":["S0031182025100875"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0031182025100875","relation":{},"ISSN":["0031-1820","1469-8161"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0031-1820","type":"print"},{"value":"1469-8161","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,29]]},"assertion":[{"value":"\u00a9 The Author(s), 2025.
