Comparative cytogenetic study in Muscidae flies.
The chromosome modal number in Muscoidea Diptera is 2n=12, including five pairs of autosomes and one sex chromosome pair. Nevertheless, some species with 2n=10 chromosomes have been described, all of them from the Muscidae family. We analyzed the karyotype of some Muscidae species from different subfamilies and compared the obtained data with the karyotypes of some species of the families Calli...
متن کاملNew diets for production of house flies and stable flies (Diptera: Muscidae) in the laboratory.

متن کاملDewatered sewage biosolids provide a productive larval habitat for stable flies and house flies (Diptera: Muscidae).
Species diversity and seasonal abundance of muscoid flies (Diptera: Muscidae) developing in biosolid cake (dewatered biosolids) stored at a wastewater treatment facility in northeastern Kansas were evaluated. Emergence traps were deployed 19 May through 20 October 2009 (22 wk) and 27 May through 18 November 2010 (25 wk). In total, 11,349 muscoid flies were collected emerging from the biosolid c...
متن کاملPotential for stable flies and house flies (Diptera: Muscidae) to transmit Rift Valley fever virus.
Rift Valley fever (RVF), a disease of ruminants and humans, has been responsible for large outbreaks in Africa that have resulted in hundreds of thousands of human infections and major economic disruption due to loss of livestock and to trade restrictions. As indicated by the rapid spread of West Nile viral activity across North America since its discovery in 1999 and the rapid and widespread m...
