More oxygen during development enhanced flight performance but not thermal tolerance of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
High temperatures can stress animals by raising the oxygen demand above the oxygen supply. Consequently, animals under hypoxia could be more sensitive to heating than those exposed to normoxia.

Chasing Flies because Time Flies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Innate Immunity, 2014
Macrophages provide a bridge linking innate and adaptive immunity. An increased frequency of macrophages and other myeloid cells paired with excessive cytokine production is commonly seen in the aging immune system, known as ‘inflamm-aging’. It is presently unclear how healthy macrophages are maintained throughout life and what connects inflammation ...

Host and Habitat Use by Parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) of House Fly and Stable Fly (Diptera: Muscidae) Pupae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
House fly and stable fly pupae were collected during the summer from a dairy farm in northern Illinois. Spalangia nigroaenea accounted for most of the parasitoids recovered from house flies. Spalangia nigra, S.

Flies and congruence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1994
AbstractCompeting phylogenetic hypotheses have become the rule in modern systematics. While the problem of incongruence between character sets has become extremely acute due to the generation of molecular data, it is by no means specific to molecular and morphological comparisons.

Female Blow Flies As Vertebrate Resource Indicators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Rapid vertebrate diversity evaluation is invaluable for monitoring changing ecosystems worldwide. Wild blow flies naturally recover DNA and chemical signatures from animal carcasses and feces.

A review and illustrated description of Musca Crassirostris, one of the most neglected livestock hematophageous flies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tabanids, stomoxyine flies, hippoboscids and tsetse flies are the most well‐known brachyceran biting flies of livestock. Only a few other higher Diptera have developed the unique mouthparts required for blood feeding.

Factory Flies Are Not Equal to Wild Flies [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2007
In his News Focus article “Welcome to Ethiopia's fly factory” (20 July, p. [310][1]), Martin Enserink highlights the controversy generated by the use of the sterile insect technique (SIT) and its application for controlling and eradicating tsetse ( Glossina spp.) in Africa.

The efficacy of extended-release eprinomectin for the reduction of horn flies, face flies, and fecal egg counts of parasitic nematodes in replacement beef heifers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of extended-release eprinomectin against horn flies, face flies, and fecal egg counts of parasitic nematodes in crossbreed replacement beef heifers. Fifty-four heifers were randomly placed into three
