abstract: Hypodermyiasis is a common myiasis which affects a wide variety of deer species in many parts of the world. In this article a great review of the disease is made, treating the different species of flies that cause the myiasis in the different species of hosts. Biologies of deer and flies are also studied, with special dedication to the chronobiology of the life cycle of the parasite. Prevalence and intensity of parasitization in many parts of Europe are recorded like expression of the importance of hypodermyiasis in deer. Finally, some remarks about treatment and control are included.
