abstract
Chrysomya megacephala was only collected in Georgia, while five other calliphorid species were collected in both Georgia and South Carolina. The University of Georgia Museum of Natural History and the Clemson University Arthropod Collection did not contain any Chrysomya specimens collected in either state. We thank Jeremy Greene and Gary Herzog for their helpful comments on an earlier draft of the manuscript. We would also like to thank Peter Adler for providing transportation and the use of his facilities while conducting this research.
