Multimodal interactions in Stomoxys navigation reveal synergy between olfaction and vision [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Stomoxys flies exhibit an attraction toward objects that offer no rewards, such as traps and targets devoid of blood or nectar incentives. This behavior provides an opportunity to develop effective tools for vector control and monitoring.

A systematic review of experimental evidence on microbial pathogen transmission by Stomoxys spp. [PDF]

Parasite
Vector-borne microbial pathogens previously isolated from Stomoxys spp. are currently considered to be emerging or re-emerging threats to public health and the veterinary sector.

Distribution and abundance of hematophagous flies (Glossinidae, Stomoxys, and Tabanidae) in two national parks of Gabon [PDF]

Parasite, 2015
In order to minimize risks of pathogen transmission with the development of ecotourism in Gabon, a seasonal inventory has been performed in five contrasted biotopes in Ivindo (INP) and Moukalaba-Doudou (MDNP) National Parks.

Stomoxys Species Richness and Apparent Densities at Different Land-Use Setups in North-Eastern KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa [PDF]

Insects
Stomoxys is a genus of blood-sucking dipteran flies from the family Muscidae with approximately 18 species reported globally. This study sought to identify and determine the apparent densities (ADs) and species richness of Stomoxys species occurring in ...

Preliminary study on prevalence of hemoprotozoan parasites harbored by Stomoxys (Diptera: Muscidae) and tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in horse farms in Nakhon Si Thammarat province, Southern Thailand [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2023
Background and Aim: Stomoxys and tabanid flies are of medical and veterinary importance because they play crucial roles in disease transmission as mechanical vectors of various hemopathogens.

Stomoxys flies (Diptera, Muscidae) are competent vectors of Trypanosoma evansi, Trypanosoma vivax, and other livestock hemopathogens. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
Stomoxys flies are widely distributed and economically significant vectors of various livestock pathogens of veterinary importance. However, the role of Stomoxys spp. in pathogen transmission is poorly understood.

Phylogenetic intermixing reveals stable fly-mediated circulation of mastitis-associated bacteria in dairy settings [PDF]

mSystems
Stomoxys flies are common blood-feeding pests on dairy farms and are suspected carriers of pathogenic bacteria due to their close association with manure and cattle hosts.

Molecular Detection of Hemoparasites in Hematophagous Insects Collected from Livestock Farms in Northeastern Thailand [PDF]

Insects
Vector-borne parasitic diseases (VBPDs) are diseases that have a major impact on the health and productivity of livestock. VBPDs, including trypanosomosis, theileriosis, and anaplasmosis, are caused by blood parasites and Rickettsiales infections that ...

Spatio-temporal patterns of stomoxyine flies (Diptera: Muscidae) in a forested area of Thailand [PDF]

Parasite
Understanding the distribution patterns of vector populations is crucial for comprehending the dynamics of vector-borne diseases. However, data on vector composition and abundance in areas of forest and wildlife-human interface in Thailand remain limited.

Evaluation of the wing cell contour to distinguish between Stomoxys bengalensis and Stomoxys sitiens (Diptera: Muscidae) using outline-based morphometrics [PDF]

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases
The blood-sucking flies of the genus Stomoxys Geoffroy, 1762 (Diptera: Muscidae) are significant ectoparasites that can cause irritation and transmit pathogens to both animals and humans.
