Physiological Races of Lucilia sericata, Mg [PDF]
RATCLIFFE1 has recently suggested that there may possibly be two physiological races of L. sericata, as the length of the pupal period of this insect at 32°C. in Scotland is 5.4 days while in France at the same temperature it is 8 days. This latter figure is quoted from a paper by Davies2 who, in turn, is only quoting the work of Cousin3 in France ...
