The presence of dung beetles made cattle dung more alkaline after 96 hours. Dung beetles were able to reproduce in cattle dung with a pH of 5.0, though in fewer numbers compared to other pH treatments. There were no negative impacts on emerging beetle physiology, though dung beetles emerging from pH 6.0 were larger compared to other pH treatments ...

Evidence of drastic loss of dung beetle diversity after 25 years in an introduced Brazilian pasture
Tunneller dung beetles markedly decreased its diversity throughout time. Medium‐ and larger‐bodied species were the most sensitive species. Abstract In tropical forest ecosystems, pastures are considered a limiting environment for dung beetles, with long‐term negative effects on the diversity of this group.

Dinámica poblacional de haematobia irritans en bovinos del trópico Méxicano
En este estudio se evaluó la fluctuación en la población de Haematobia irritans de febrero 2004 a febrero 2005, en Martínez de la Torre, Veracruz, México. Se utilizaron 15 vaquillas F1 (Holstein por Brahman) de 11 Ó 2 meses de edad y 170 Ó 19 kg de peso,

Developmental stress by diflubenzuron in Haematobia irritans (L.) (Diptera: Muscidae) [PDF]
This study aimed to assess the effect of sub-lethal concentrations of the insect growth regulator (IGR), diflubenzuron, on the body size of the horn fly Haematobia irritans (L.) and on its developmental stability, by fluctuating asymmetry (FA) analysis.

Ulcerative skin lesions caused by Stephanofilaria dinniki are common in populations of the critically endangered eastern black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis michaeli). Although considered benign, they have been associated with loss of body condition and mortality in rhinoceros.

Esterase patterns in four Brazilian populations of Haematobia irritans.
Four population samples of Haematobia irritans (horn flies), collected from farms and subjected, or not, to insecticide control, were analysed as to esterase bands by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Eight esterase bands were detected in this species, a low number when compared with flies of other genera. The reduced number of esterase variants of H.
