In American nonhuman primates (NHP), three bot fly species causing cutaneous myiasis have been reported: Cuterebra baeri, Cochliomyia hominivorax, and Dermatobia hominis. Studies on myiasis in NHP are scarce and mainly based on morphologic identification of larvae, while molecular approaches have been barely used. This study aimed to molecularly identify bot flies parasitizing two NHP species living sympatrically in central Colombia. Bot fly larvae were collected from two grey-legged night monkeys (Aotus griseimembra) and from a howler monkey (Alouatta seniculus). Larvae were measured and photographed for morphologic evaluation; subsequent molecular characterizations of a partial region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 mitochondrial gene were performed. Sequence analysis allowed the identification of all specimens as Cuterebra baeri, enabling confirmation of this species parasitizing Alouatta seniculus and Aotus griseimembra in Colombia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7589\/jwd-d-22-00062","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,25]],"date-time":"2023-04-25T00:50:26Z","timestamp":1682383826000},"page":"181-185","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Cuterebra baeri Infecting Grey-Legged Night Monkeys (Aotus griseimembra) and Red Howler Monkeys (Alouatta seniculus) in Colombia"],"prefix":"10.7589","volume":"59","author":[{"given":"Silvia","family":"Rond\u00f3n","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health and Infectious Diseases, Sapienza University of Rome, Piazzale Aldo Moro 5, 00185, Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Serena","family":"Cavallero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health and Infectious Diseases, Sapienza University of Rome, Piazzale Aldo Moro 5, 00185, Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andr\u00e9s","family":"Link","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratorio de Ecolog\u00eda de Bosques Tropicales y Primatolog\u00eda, LEBTYP, Departamento de Ciencias Biol\u00f3gicas, Universidad de Los Andes, Cra. 1 N\u00b0 18a-12, 111711, Bogot\u00e1, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manuela","family":"De Meo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Investigaciones en Microbiolog\u00eda y Parasitolog\u00eda Tropical, CIMPAT, Departamento de Ciencias Biol\u00f3gicas, Universidad de los Andes, Cra. 1 N\u00b0 18a-12, 111711, Bogot\u00e1, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Camila","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Investigaciones en Microbiolog\u00eda y Parasitolog\u00eda Tropical, CIMPAT, Departamento de Ciencias Biol\u00f3gicas, Universidad de los Andes, Cra. 1 N\u00b0 18a-12, 111711, Bogot\u00e1, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefano","family":"D'Amelio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health and Infectious Diseases, Sapienza University of Rome, Piazzale Aldo Moro 5, 00185, Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"4415","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"O Calder\u00f3n-Arguedas, A Troyo, ME Solano, et al.  \"Neotrop Primates.\"  12, \"Infecci\u00f3n por larvas de Alouattamyia baeri (Diptera: Cuterebridae) en monos aulladores, Alouatta palliata (Primates: Cebidae) de la costa caribe de Costa Rica.\" 21 (2004)","DOI":"10.62015\/np.2004.v12.566"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"J Cristobal-Azkarate, DD Colwell, D Kenny, et al.  \"J Wildl Dis.\"  48, \"First report of bot fly (Cuterebra baeri) infestation in howler monkeys (Alouatta palliata) from Mexico.\" 822 (2012)","DOI":"10.7589\/0090-3558-48.3.822"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"K.
