The white-sand enclaves in the Amazon Basin are small areas scattered through the tropical forest, with sandy and nutrient-poor soils and an unusual vegetation type. The insect fauna of this ecosystem is poorly known, especially in the eastern Amazon. The flesh fly fauna of an area of open herbaceous white-sand vegetation known as "Campo Redondo" in the municipality of Cametá, state of Pará, was surveyed, resulting in the discovery of 43 species in 11 genera representing the subfamilies Sarcophaginae and Miltogramminae. Four new species are described: Dexosarcophaga (Dexosarcophaga) campina sp. nov., Helicobia cametaensis sp. nov., Helicobia domquixote sp. nov., and Metopia fofo sp. nov. Lepidodexia (Lepidodexia) grisea Lopes and Lepidodexia (Notochaeta) setifrons (Lopes) are newly recorded from Brazil. Dexosarcophaga (Bezzisca) ampullula (Engel), D. (Dexosarcophaga) transita Townsend and Titanogrypa (Cucullomyia) larvicida (Lopes) are newly recorded from the Brazilian Amazon.
亚马逊盆地的白沙飞地是散布在热带森林中的小块区域,土壤多沙且贫瘠,植被类型独特。该生态系统的昆虫区系鲜为人知,尤其是在亚马逊东部地区。对帕拉州卡梅塔市一片名为“坎波雷东多”的开阔草本白沙植被区域的麻蝇动物区系进行了调查,结果发现了11个属的43个物种,代表麻蝇亚科和蜂麻蝇亚科。描述了四个新物种:新种坎皮纳德克索麻蝇(Dexosarcophaga (Dexosarcophaga) campina sp. nov.)、新种卡梅塔赫利科麻蝇(Helicobia cametaensis sp. nov.)、新种堂吉诃德赫利科麻蝇(Helicobia domquixote sp. nov.)和新种福福梅托麻蝇(Metopia fofo sp. nov.)。巴西新记录了灰鳞德克索麻蝇(Lepidodexia (Lepidodexia) grisea Lopes)和鬃毛鳞德克索麻蝇(Lepidodexia (Notochaeta) setifrons (Lopes))。壶腹德克索麻蝇(Dexosarcophaga (Bezzisca) ampullula (Engel))、过渡德克索麻蝇(D. (Dexosarcophaga) transita Townsend)和杀幼虫泰坦大蚊(Titanogrypa (Cucullomyia) larvicida (Lopes))是巴西亚马逊地区的新记录。
