Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington. ref The larvae suck the blood of nestlings and are found in the nests of birds. The genus is affected by Wolbachia bacteria and it has been suggested that horizontal gene transfer may have led to the difficulty in separating species of Protocalliphora through DNA fingerprinting, with several species possessing identical mtDNA Cyclooxygenase Cytochrome oxidase I sequences. ref T.L.
