Wound Myiasis Caused by Sarcophaga (Liopygia) Argyrostoma (Robineau-Desvoidy) (Diptera: Sarcophagidae): Additional Evidences of the Morphological Identification Dilemma and Molecular Investigation

Figure 5

The Neighbor-Joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree based on analysis of the partial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene of Sarcophaga species of forensic interest. The Sarcophaga argyrostoma sequence from the present study (black spot), 11 sequences representing the other Sarcophaga species belonging to Liopygia subgenus, that is, S. crassipalpis (9) and S. cultellata (2) and 20 other Sarcophaga species from GenBank were included in the analysis for comparative purposes. Wohlfahrtia magnifica was used as an outgroup. GenBank accession numbers (in brackets), Sarcophaga species, and country of origin are reported.
