🪰Dermatobia hominis

Dermatobia hominis (Linnaeus, 1781)

ヒトヒフバエ(Dermatobia hominis, 英: human botfly, 独: amerikanische Dasselfliege, 仏: ver macaque, 中: 人皮蠅)は、ハエ目ヒツジバエ科の昆虫。幼虫はヒト(および霊長目を含む広範囲の動物)に寄生して蠅蛆症を引き起こす。原産地はメキシコ・ベラクルス州からアルゼンチンおよびチリの北部、ウルグアイにかけて。 英語ではtorsaloまたはAmerican warble flyとも呼ばれる。『南山堂医学大辞典』はウマバエの学名としてDermatobia hominisを挙げるが、他の文献によるとウマバエの学名はGastrophilus intestinalisである。ここでは、D. hominisの和名としてヒトヒフバエを採用する。
