Molecular identification and composition of cyclorrhaphan flies associated with cafeterias

Cafeterias are routinely visited by people to fulfil their daily feeding and drinking requirements. Unnoticed visitors, such as cyclorrhaphan flies, are also present in these places which can be a source of food poisoning and disease spread. These flies were collected from garbage piles, kitchen and...

Unnoticed visitors, such as cyclorrhaphan flies, are also present in these places which can be a source of food poisoning and disease spread. These flies were collected from garbage piles, kitchen and vacant sites of two cafeterias (Cafeteria Serumpun and Cafeteria Agro-bio) within Universiti Putra Malaysia and one cafeteria (Cafeteria Old-flat) outside the university. A total of 1,037 fly specimens were collected and identified belonging to Calliphoridae, Muscidae and Sarcophagadae.
