A Technique for the Laboratory Mating of Rodent Bot Flies (Diptera: Cuterebridae)
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1973Rodent bot flies of the genus Culerebra were first mated in the laboratory by Catts (1964, J. Med. Ent. 1 : 195–96) using procedures described by Weintraub (1961, Can. Ent. 93 : 149–56). The most successful of these techniques, the “tethered flight” method, consists of affixing a thread to the thorax of each fly and manipulating the sexes together in ...

Further studies on the chipmunk warble, Cuterebra emasculator (Diptera: Cuterebridae)
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1972The prevalence of Cuterebra emasculator Fitch in 1328 chipmunks (Tamias striatus) was analyzed as to the sex and age class of the host and to the forest habitats from which the chipmunks were obtained. The prevalence of the parasite was highest in immature animals of both sexes and lowest in adult females. Prevalence of C.

Laboratory Colonization of Rodent Bot Flies (Diptera, Cuterebridae)
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1964Two species of rodent bot flies, Cuterebra approximata Walker and C. latifrons Coq. were colonized through three generations in the laboratory. Rearing material was obtained from trapped wild hosts and captured gravid female flies. In the laboratory, native hosts (Peromyscus maniculatus ssp.

BIOLOGY OF CUTEREBRA LEPUSCULI TOWNSEND (DIPTERA: CUTEREBRIDAE) IN COTTONTAIL RABBITS IN IDAHO
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1983Cuterebra lepusculi Townsend parasitize cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus nuttallii) in southern Idaho. Peak parasitism was 69% in mid-September. Mean development time in the host was 27 days. The species is univoltine in Idaho. Partially developed larvae were transferred from freshly killed to living hosts and the resulting larvae matured normally ...

Scanning Electron Microscopy of Male Genitalia of Dermatobia hominis (Diptera: Cuterebridae)
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1990The male genitalia of Dermatobia hominis L. is described morphologically by the use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and compared, under light microscopy, with other Cuterebridae D. hominis differes from Metacuterebra apicalis (Guérin-Méneville) because it has longer gonopods, shorter parameter, a small crest and spines on the distiphallus a ...

Pupal diapause in Cuterebra tenebrosa Coquillett was terminated by injections of 0.1 to 0.6 μg of ecdysterone per pupa. Treated pupae resumed development 2–3 days after injection and emerged as adults in 44 days independent of prior time in diapause. Controls remained in diapause. Reproductive capability of the resulting flies was normal.

Aggregation Behavior of Adult Cuterebra Fontinella (Diptera: Cuterebridae) in Pennsylvania, USA
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1983The first eastern North American aggregation site reported for Cuterebra fontinella was discovered in Bradford Co., Pennsylvania, USA. Male flies established and patrolled territories within 3 different sections of an open Spiraea -grass-sedge meadow at the headwaters of an intermittent stream.

Warble development by the rodent bot Cuterebra fontinella (diptera: Cuterebridae) in the deer mouse
Veterinary Parasitology, 1991Warbles induced by the rodent bot fly larvae, Cuterebra fontinella, developed over a period of 3.5-4 weeks in the deer mouse Peromyscus maniculatus. Warble location, structure and dynamics were examined. Clustering of warbles occurred primarily within the inguinal region of the deer mouse with a significant number favoring the area between the anus and

Larvae of the rodent botfly, Cuterebra fontinella, follow a consistent migration route thorough their natural host, the white-footed mouse, Peromyscus leucopus. Larvae that enter the eye or nares spend about 48 hr in the nasal cavity and then follow a caudally oriented path that leads through the nasal passage, trachea, thoracic and abdominal cavities,

Cuterebra polita Coquillett is a primary parasite of the pocket gopher. Thomomys talpoides . in the western United States. It also occurs secondarily in other wild rodents that come into close contact with pocket gophers. Field studies disclosed pursuit, mating, and ovipositing at an aggregation site near Monte Cristo, Utah.
