摘要：

In the summer of 2005 an adult hiker was killed in a fall in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado (U.S.A.). His body was subsequently colonized by the blowfly Calliphora vicina (Diptera: Calliphoridae). The body was discovered 9 days later at an elevation of 3475 in (11,400 feet), This is the first report of C. vicina on a human corpse at this elevation in Colorado. This paper provides additional confirmation of this fly colonizing a human corpse at high elevations in Colorado.
