Description:	The New World Screwworm (NWS), Cochliomyia hominivorax, is one of the most important parasitic insect pests causing invasive myiasis in warm-blooded vertebrates, particularly livestock, and therefore, affecting the economic development of the agricultural sector throughout Neotropical regions. Due to the substantial economic losses caused by this pest, an international effort has been involved in the program for the eradication of NWS from endemic areas and the prevention and rapid response to invasions into screwworm-free areas. To investigate specific evolutionary patterns of evolution, to enhance the efficiency of the implementation of the eradication program for screwworm and to reduce risk associated with the introduction into new areas it is necessary to determine the genetic variability and population structure of the NWS across its current geographic distribution.
