Abstract | Larvae of the blowfly Chrysomya megacephala were reared on an artificial diet composed of five different
concentrations of albumin (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10%) and the control group was fed on putrid bovine meat. No larvae
developed in the 2 and 10% albumin concentrations. The period from newly hatched larvae to adults reared on 4, 6
and 8% albumin was 13.1, 13.1 and 13.6 days, respectively, whereas for the control group, it was 11.2 days.
Concentrations of 4, 6 and 8% albumin proved viabile for larval periods of 29.3, 44.0 and 57.3%, respectively,
whereas for the control group, it was 77.3%. Pupal viability was 77.3, 36.4 and 83.7%, while for the control group,
it was 84.5%; the newly hatched larvae to adult viability was 21.3, 16.0 and 48.0%, respectively, and for the
control group, it was 65.3%. | pt_BR |
