Egg, larvae and the puparium of Fannia sabroskyi Seago, 1954 (Diptera, Fanniidae) are described and illustrated for the first time. The following structures have been documented: pseudocephalon, antennal complex, maxillary palpus, facial mask, anterior spiracle, cephaloskeleton structures, thoracic and abdominal processes, anal division, and posterior spiracle. Due to its necrophagous habit, this species may be of potential forensic importance for estimating the postmortem interval in criminal investigations. The information presented herein may be useful to distinguish the immature forms of Fannia species and to supplement the database for identification of Neotropical species of Fanniidae. In addition, it is also important for evolutionary and phylogenetic studies.
首次描述并图示了 Fannia sabroskyi Seago, 1954(双翅目,蚤蝇科)的卵、幼虫和蛹。记录了以下结构:假头、触角复合体、下颚须、面盾、前气门、头内骨骼结构、胸和腹突、肛部分离和后气门。由于其腐食性习性,该物种在法医鉴定中可能对估计死后时间间隔具有潜在的重要性。本文提供的信息可能有助于区分蚤蝇属的未成熟形式,并补充鉴定新热带蚤蝇科物种的数据库。此外,它对于进化和系统发育研究也很重要。
