The adult mouthparts and digestive tract are therefore frequently vestigial; however, morphological data on the alimentary canal in adult oestrid flies are scarce and a proper visualization of this organ system within the adult body is lacking. The present work visualizes the morphology of the alimentary canal in adults of two oestrid species,\n \n Oestrus ovis<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n L. and\n \n Hypoderma lineatum<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n (de Villiers), with the use of non\u2010invasive micro\u2010computed tomography (micro\u2010CT) and compares it with the highly developed alimentary canal of the blow fly\n \n Calliphora vicina<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n Robineau\u2010Desvoidy (Diptera: Calliphoridae). Both\n \n O.\u00a0ovis<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n and\n \n H.\u00a0lineatum<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:styled-content>\n adults showed significant reductions of the cardia and the diameter of the digestive tract, an absence of the helicoidal portion of the midgut typical of other cyclorrhaphous flies, and a lack of crop and salivary glands. Given the current interest in the alimentary canal in adult dipterans in biomedical and developmental biology studies, further understanding of the morphology and development of this organ system in adult oestrids may provide valuable new insights in several areas of research.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/mve.12301","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,16]],"date-time":"2018-02-16T05:42:44Z","timestamp":1518759764000},"page":"378-382","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Micro\u2010computed tomography visualization of the vestigial alimentary canal in adult oestrid flies"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5626-5441","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"D.","family":"Mart\u00edn\u2010Vega","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Life Sciences Natural History Museum London U.K."},{"name":"Department of Life Sciences University of Alcal\u00e1 Alcal\u00e1 de Henares Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Garbout","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Imaging and Analysis Centre Natural History Museum London U.K."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"F.","family":"Ahmed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Imaging and Analysis Centre Natural History Museum London U.K."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L.
