Cordylobia anthropophaga, the mango fly, tumbu fly, tumba fly, putzi fly, or skin maggot fly, is a species of blow-fly common in East and Central Africa. It is a parasite of large mammals (including humans) during its larval stage. C. anthropophaga has been endemic in the subtropics of Africa for more than 135 years and is a common cause of myiasis in humans in the region. Its specific epithet anthropophaga derives from the Greek word anthropophagos, "human eater". — Ann. Soc. Entom. de Belgique, Iv, pp. 192–197, 1911) summary translation in Entomological News. 1911 Vol. xxii:467.

  • Die Tumbufliege (Cordylobia anthropophaga), auch oftmals Mangofliege genannt, ist ein Ektoparasit aus der Gattung Cordylobia und damit zur Familie der Schmeißfliegen (Calliphoridae) gehörig. Sie kommt im tropischen Afrika südlich der Sahara vor, wurde aber inzwischen auch auf der Arabischen Halbinsel, in Saudi-Arabien, nachgewiesen. Die weibliche Fliege legt ihre Eier vor allem auf sandigen Böden ab. (de)

It is a parasite of large mammals (including humans) during its larval stage. C. anthropophaga has been endemic in the subtropics of Africa for more than 135 years and is a common cause of myiasis in humans in the region. Its specific epithet anthropophaga derives from the Greek word anthropophagos, "human eater". The mode of infection by the Cayor Worm. Doctors Rodhain and Bequaert conclude, from their observations in the Congo Free State, that Cordylobia anthropophaga lays its eggs on the ground. The larvae, known generally as Cayor Worms, crawl over the soil until they come in contact with a mammal, penetrate the skin and lie in the subcutaneous tissue, causing the formation of tumors. On reaching full growth, the larvae leave the host, fall to the ground, bury themselves and then pupate. This fly is said to be the most common cause of human or animal myiasis in tropical Africa, from Senegal to Natal. In the region of Lower Katanga where these investigations were made, dogs appeared to be the principal hosts, although Cordylobia larvae were found also in guinea-pigs, a monkey, and two humans. The larvae are always localized on those parts of the hosts which come in immediate contact with the soil." — Ann. Soc.

Chez l'humain, l'infestation est rare. Elle peut toucher la peau, les plaies, les intestins et les cavités corporelles (bouche, nez, oreilles, yeux, anus, vagin et urètre). (fr)
