Two of 19 roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) in northern Spain were infested with Cephenemyia stimulator and one individual with Oestrus ovis. Three larvae of O. ovis were recovered from the nasopharynx of an adult female deer examined in February 2017, during the hunting season in the province of Burgos. The larvae were identified by morphology, and DNA sequencing from cytochrome oxidase subunit I and 28S rDNA confirmed the identification of both species of larvae. The possibility of O. ovis parasitizing roe deer should be considered in the diagnosis of nasal bots in cervids.
