resumo
The aim of this work was to survey the prevalence of Senotainia sp. (Diptera,
Sarcophagidae) in several Portuguese regions. A total of 61182 bees were sampled from
1912 Portuguese apiaries, distributed in several regions of Portugal and were analyzed for
Senotainia sp prevalence. The bees samples were collected during 2009 and the thoraxes of
40 bees taken from each sample were examined individually in Reference National
Laboratory {LNIV) and Bee Pathology Laboratory of Agrarian School of Braganza {LPESAB)
to look for diptera larvae (myiasis) parasitization.
