| description | A preliminary study on coprophilous and necrophilous Diptera assemblages was done at family level, in a serranía forest in Sierra de Minas, Uruguay. Besides, seasonal structure variations of both assemblages were assessed. Dipterous were sampled monthly during a year, using pitfall traps baited with cow dung and cow liver, which were deployed for a week. A total of 3,142 individuals correspondingto 21 families, were captured. Heleomyzidae was recorded for the first time in Uruguay. The most abundant families were Phoridae and Sphaeroceridae which represented 58% of total number of captures. Sphaeroceridae (42%) was the dominant family in dung baited traps, followed by Cecidomyiidae (14%) and Phoridae (12%). Phoridae (59%) was the most abundant family in carrion baited traps, followed by Drosophilidae (10%). Both assemblages showed the same pattern of seasonal abundances variation, and revealed peaks in spring (October - November) and in autumn (April). The number of families of coprophilous flies was greater during spring (October-December) and in autumn (April) while necrophilous flies showed the highest richness of families only from October to November. This study represents the contribution to the knowledge about dipteran communities in native ecosystems in Uruguay. |

Se realizó un estudio preliminar sobre la estructura de los ensambles de dípteros coprófilos y necrófilos a nivel de familias, en un bosque serrano en Sierra de Minas, Uruguay. Asimismo se estableció la variación estacional de dicha estructura para ambos grupos de dípteros. Se realizaron muestreos mensuales durante un año, colocando durante una semana, seis trampas de caída, tres cebadas con estiércol vacuno y tres con hígado vacuno. Se recolectaron 3,142 individuos pertenecientes a 21 familias del Orden Diptera. Se registró por primera vez la familia Heleomyizidae en Uruguay. Las familias con mayor abundancia fueron Phoridae y Sphaeroceridae, representando el 58% del total de ejemplares recolectados. En las trampas con estiércol vacuno predominaron Sphaeroceridae (42%), Cecidomyiidae (14%) y Phoridae (12%). En las necrotrampas la familia más abundante fue Phoridae que representó el 59% del total de individuos, seguida de Drosophilidae (10%). Los dos ensambles presentaron el mismo patrón de variación estacional de la abundancia, con picos en otoño (marzo-abril) y en primavera (octubre-noviembre). La riqueza de familias del ensamble coprófilo fue mayor durante la primavera (octubre a diciembre) y en otoño (abril) mientras que el ensamble necrófilo presentó la mayor riqueza de familias solamente de octubre a noviembre. Este estudio constituye un primer paso en la generación de conocimientosacerca de la composición de las comunidades de dípteros en ambientes nativos en Uruguay.
