Resumen
El presente trabajo estudió la relación entre las comunidades de entomofauna de importancia forense y las diferentes ecorregiones del Ecuador en comparación con Sudamérica. Se integró 1344 reportes, pertenecientes a ocho órdenes. Los órdenes más abundantes fueron Diptera, Coleoptera e Himenoptera con 677, 577 y 76 registros respectivamente. Con base a la composición y abundancia de insectos con importancia
forense presente en ecorregiones se observó la mayor diversidad en el Bosque húmedo tropical, ecosistema compartido entre Brasil, Colombia, Ecuador y Perú, en la que se reportan 254 especies de coleópteros, 167 especies de dípteros y 26 especies de himenópteros. Adicionalmente, se identificó la familia más representativa, que es Muscidae, la especie que se destaca es Musca doméstica, aquella especie se reportó
presente en todos los países reportados. Los resultados indicaron que la presencia y/o abundancia de estas familias no están influenciadas por los factores ambientales.

A total of 1344 reports were integrated, belonging to eight orders. The most abundant orders were Diptera, Coleoptera and Hymenoptera with 677, 577 and 76 records respectively. Based on the composition and abundance of insects with forensic importance present in ecorregions, the greatest diversity was observed in the tropical rain forest, an ecosystem shared between Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, in which 254 species of Coleoptera are reported, 167 species of Diptera and 26 species of Hymenoptera. Additionally, the most representative family was identified, which is Muscidae, the species that stands out is Musca domestica, that species was reported to be present in all reported countries. The results indicated that the presence and / or abundance of these families are not influenced by environmental factors
