MORPHOLOGY OF THE LARVAL STAGES OF Elaeophora schneideri IN THE INTERMEDIATE AND DEFINITIVE HOSTS WITH SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THEIR PATHOGENESIS IN ABNORMAL DEFINITIVE HOSTS [PDF]
Morphology of the larval stages of Elaeophora schneideri from the horse fly and the normal definitive host (Odocoileus hemionus) are described. Development of larvae in the horsefly begins in the fat bodies, but larvae enter the haemocoele early in the first-stage of development and remain in the haemocoele until they are third-stage (infective) and ...
