摘 要:Objective:To identify the diversity and relative abundance of medically important species of synanthropic flies and their seasonal activity on Qeshm Island in Persian Gulf,***:Flies collection was performed during March 2011 to February 2012 in all different areas of the island by using the common fly trap and plastic water bottle fly trap,reverse-cone model,containing tainted lamb or beef meat as *** captured flies were identified by using valid flies systematic keys,checklists and species *** relative abundances and seasonal activity of flies were estimated by means of flies captured per trap in every ***:In this study a total number of 11 species of medically important flies in three families including Calliphoridae,Sarcophagidae and Muscidae,were *** relative mean abundance of flies was estimated to be 6.3±1.1 per *** most abundance was seen in rural areas in the south of Qeshm Island with 10.1±1.5 per *** this island,medically impotent flies had two peaks of activity in early spring and early autumn,during April and *** activity decreased in July and August due to the high increase of temperature and humidity of the *** February,the relative decrease in air temperature reduced the activity of the ***:Diversity and abundance of flies in spring and early autumn were higher than other seasons,especially in rural areas of Southern Qeshm *** control measures should be conducted during the peak of flies activity.
