Landmark and outline-based geometric morphometrics analysis of three Stomoxys flies (Diptera: Muscidae).
Adult flies of the genus Stomoxys Geoffroy, 1762 (Diptera: Muscidae), especially S. pullus Austen, 1909, S. uruma Shinonaga et Kano, 1966 and S. indicus Picard, 1908, are morphologically similar and sometimes difficult to distinguish when using external morphological characteristics. These species may act as vectors and/or potential vectors of many pathogens (virus, bacteria and protozoa). Thei...
متن کاملTransmission of pathogens by Stomoxys flies (Diptera, Muscidae): a review
Stomoxys flies are mechanical vectors of pathogens present in the blood and skin of their animal hosts, especially livestock, but occasionally humans. In livestock, their direct effects are disturbance, skin lesions, reduction of food intake, stress, blood loss, and a global immunosuppressive effect. They also induce the gathering of animals for mutual protection; meanwhile they favor developme...
متن کاملVector competence of stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans L. (Diptera: Muscidae), for Enterobacter sakazakii.
Enterobacter sakazakii is an opportunistic food-borne pathogen causing meningitis, enterocolitis, and sepsis, primarily in immunocompromised infants. It has been suggested that stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans L., are a vector/reservoir of this pathogen. In this study, we assessed a) vector competence of adult stable flies (SF) for E. sakazakii, b) effect of E. sakazakii on SF development, and...
متن کاملMorphological Studies of Stomoxys spp. (Diptera: Muscidae) in Central Thailand
Morphological characteristics of Stomoxys spp. were studied and recorded for the first time in Thailand. Specimens were collected in central Thailand at Nakhon Pathom, Kanchanaburi and Saraburi Province, using Vavoua traps and sweep net. It was found that Stomoxys calcitrans (L.) was the most commonly abundant species, followed by Stomoxys sitiens Rondani, Stomoxys indica Picard and Stomoxys be...
متن کاملPhylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial and nuclear data in haematophagous flies support the paraphyly of the genus Stomoxys (Diptera: Muscidae).
The genus Stomoxys Geoffroy (Diptera; Muscidae) contains species of parasitic flies that are of medical and economic importance. We conducted a phylogenetic analysis including 10 representative species of the genus including multiple exemplars, together with the closely related genera Prostomoxys Zumpt, Haematobosca Bezzi, and Haematobia Lepeletier & Serville. Phylogenetic relationships were in...
