Abstract Cattle treated with LongRange®, an injectable formulation of the parasiticide eprinomectin, fecally excrete insecticidal residues for an extended period post application. We examined the nontarget effect of these residues by comparing insect communities developing in dung of untreated cattle (week 0) with those developing in dung of cattle ...

Blood-Feeding Strategy of Haematobia irritans (Diptera: Muscidae) [PDF]
The economic impact on livestock production by Haematobia irritans (L.) is estimated to approach $1 billion per year in North America. However, there is little information regarding the blood-feeding strategy used by these insects. Information presented here shows that horn fly saliva interferes with the normal coagulation response as measured by the ...

In this study, we assessed the composition and establishment of the microbiome of insect eggs using the Southern green stinkbug Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) as a study object. Our results show that the egg‐associated bacterial microbiome is species‐poor and dominated by a few symbionts, particularly the species‐specific obligate Pantoea ...

Abstract Cryptocaryon irritans, one of the most devastating holotrichous ciliated protozoans, causes massive economic losses in the pompano, Trachinotus ovatus, mariculture industries. Considering the many advantages of phytochemicals, such as low cost, low residuals, and low pollution, they can be a good alternative for the prevention and control of C.

Adverse effects of Diptera flies on northern ungulates: Rangifer, Alces, and Bison
Ungulates resist flies initially by morphological barriers of skin and hair, and later by physiological processes of healing and immunity. The cost of repairing skin increases with damage to the body surface, but the costs of immune response vary widely with the fly and the associated diseases.
