[The synanthropy of the calliphorids (Insecta, Diptera) of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil].
The calliphorids synantropics were studied in three different environments--urban, rural and forest area--in metropolitan region of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil during october and december of 1996 to estimate the abundance, preferences of the adults to baits (fresh fish, bird liver and human faeces) and the synanthropic index for the most abundant species. A total of 3399 calliphorids of 13 different species were sampled: Phaenicia eximia (Wiedemann, 1819), Phaenicia cuprina (Wiedemann, 1818), Phaenicia sericata (Meigen, 1826), Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius, 1775), Chrysomya putoria (Wiedemann, 1818), Chrysomya albiceps (Wiedemann, 1819), Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius, 1794), Hemilucilia segmentaria (Fabricius, 1805), Hemilucilia semidiaphana (Rondani, 1850), Paralucilia xanthogeneiates (Dear, 1850), Paralucilia fulvinota (Bigot, 1877), Sarconesia chlorogaster (Wiedemann, 1930) and Calliphora erytrocephala Meigen, 1826.
