case_images: Diagnosis of myiasis causing larvae is based on the form of spiracles, cephalopharyngeal skeleton, shape and size of developed larvae: the posterior spiracles (Fig. 1c), do not have a distinct button and the numbers of lobes on the anterior spiracles are six, which would give a definitive identification of C. bezziana. Finally, the robust spine bands (Fig. 1b), are other indicative criteria of C. bezziana (Belding 196), as well as characteristics of reared adults.
