The squatters and the blowflies
Australian Veterinary Journal, 2002Cutaneous myiasis in Australian sheep became an increasing problem in the early years of the 20th century after the import of the wrinkly Vermont Merinos and the introduction o f Lucillia cuprina. WE Abbott, a successful pastoralist in New South Wales at that time, wrote a little‐known and unusual description of early methods of control: a parody based

SIR, – Colleagues in small animal practice will be all too aware of the pathogenicity of blowfly strike in pet rabbits and how upsetting the condition can be for rabbit owners. Recent work at the University of Bristol has quantified the prevalence of strike in rabbits and shown that the disease ...

Journal of Cellular and Comparative Physiology, 1965
AbstractEach interpseudotracheal papilla on the oral surface of the labellum of the blowfly contains four bipolar neurons. An electrophysiological analysis has shown that one of these cells is a receptor which responds specifically to carbohydrates. The response consists of a rapid initial discharge which typically adapts to one‐half maximum frequency ...

> Flock owners should be made aware that sheep blowfly strike can still occur despite the absence of rainfall Flock owners should be made aware that sheep blowfly strike (ovine cutaneous myiasis) can still occur despite the absence of rainfall. Blowfly eggs are deposited on the sheep’s fleece and optimal fleece temperatures and humidity are vital for

Nature, 1953
A STUDY of two species of blowfly, Calliphora erythrocephala and Lucilia sericata, has shown that a rapid synthesis of an acetylcholine-like substance can take place in extracts prepared from these insects. This synthesis, which occurs in the absence of additional substrate, may account for some of the high concentrations of acetylcholine which have ...

Zusammenfassung Wenn Futter die Geschmacksorgane an den Tastern einer Fliege beruhrt, streckt sie ihren Russel aus; dadurch kommen die geschmacksempfindlichen Haare des Russels in Kontakt mit der Nahrung. Auf diesen Reiz hin offnen sich die Labellen und geben die Chemoreceptoren der Mundoffnung frei.

ABSTRACT The current view of the control feeding in the blowfly Phormia regina Meigen holds that ingestion is initiated by stimulation of oral taste receptors and ultimately terminated by signals from the foregut (Dethier & Bodenstein, 1958).

Sclerotization in the Blowfly Imago
Science, 1964N -acetyldopamine has been identified as a dihydroxyphenylalanine metabolite in the blowfly imago during eclosion. The activity of the dihydroxyphenylalanine decarboxylase, the main enzyme responsible for its formation, which is minimal during the pupal stage, increases 1 day before eclosion.

The composition of the empty puparia of a blowfly
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1970Abstract The exuviae after emergence of adult Lucilia cuprina were analysed chemically. The rigid, sclerotized puparia were separated from the thin inner membranes made up of pupal and other cuticular structures. Both systems contained lipids, chitin, protein, and metallic and other elements.

Spectral sensitivity of the landing blowfly
Journal of Comparative Physiology ? A, 1983Whether or not colour discrimination is involved in the process of eliciting the landing response of the fly was investigated with rotating linear spiral patterns of different spectral composition. With monochromatic patterns execution of the response depends on the contrast in the pattern: no response occurs within a restricted range of intensity ...
