Trypoxylon lactitarse nests in southern Brazil have been attacked by Chrysididae, Eulophidae, Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera),
Sarcophagidae and Phoridae (Diptera) (Buschini & Wolff 2006).
Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) are the first to visit a carcass, followed by flesh (Diptera:
Sarcophagidae) and house (Diptera: Muscidae) flies (Kreitlow 2010).
The members of
Sarcophagidae, Ulidiidae and Fanniidae were also collected.
Typically, blowflies (Calliphoridae), flesh flies (
Sarcophagidae), and house flies (Muscidae) are the primary indicators of the PMI (Catts and Haskell, 1991).
The utility of mitochondrial DNA fragments for genetic identification of forensically important sarcophagid flies (Diptera:
Sarcophagidae) in China.
Las moscas de la familia
Sarcophagidae son ovoviviparos, sin excepcion, lo que significa que sus huevos eclosionan en el utero y la hembra depositan una larva viva en el hospedero (Shewell 1987).

Species from at least 23 dipteran families exploit carrion as a food source, of which Calliphoridae,
Sarcophagidae, Muscidae and Fanniidae are the most important (Savage 2002).
Although our study did not allow us to encounter natural enemies, Janzen and Hallwachs (2009) mentioned Lespesia aletiae Riley, 1879 (Tachinidae) and an unidentified species of
Sarcophagidae as parasitoids of I grandirena.
