Scarce. Myiasis as a form of parasitism is of great scientific interest. It often results in the death of domestic stock, and is thus of economic importance; and in man it can cause serious and disfiguring illness. This monograph gives a complete account of the myiasis-producing flies (Diptera) of the Old World.
