| Description: | A year-long entomological survey was performed in 2016-2017 using carrion-baited traps (chicken, pork, squid, or beef) to assess the diversity of necrophagous flies in the municipality of Yautepec, Morelos, Mexico. A total of 4,765 flies from 18 families were collected, more than 50 percent of the specimens collected (2,644) belonged to Calliphoridae represented by five genera and eight species. Out of these eight species we evaluated if the species presented a preference fora specific type of bait, our results show that Chrysomya rufifacies and C. megacephala preferred squid, while Cochliomyia macellaria, Hemilucilia segmentaria, and Lucilia mexicana preferred chicken. Se llevó a cabo un estudio anual utilizando trampas con carroña (pollo, cerdo, calamar y res) para conocer la diversidad de las moscas necrófagas en el municipio de Yautepec, Morelos, México.
