Stomoxys sp. on Cattle in Uganda
Nature, 1958IT is common practice in Uganda to house cattle during the hottest part of the day, between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. (approximately 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. sun time), primarily to protect them from irritation caused by the biting fly Stomoxys sp. Although no factual evidence is available, it is generally assumed that where cattle are left out continuously much of ...

Efficiency of traps for Stomoxys calcitrans and Stomoxys niger niger on Reunion Island
Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 2007Abstract The main objective of this study was to compare the trapping efficiency of two Alsynite sticky traps (modified Williams and modified Broce) and two phtalogen blue cloth traps (Vavoua and Nzi) to be used in an integrated control programme of Stomoxys spp. (Diptera:

Phenylpropanoids as Attractants for Adult Stomoxys calcitrans (Diptera: Muscidae)
Journal of Medical Entomology, 1996Rate of capture of stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), on phenylpropanoid-baited and unbaited sticky traps was determined in tests conducted in a corn field and in grasses adjacent to a dairy farm. Phenylpropanoid compounds significantly increased capture in 2 of 4 tests in corn.

Stomoxys Control in Uganda, East Africa
Nature, 1959SINCE 1956, field research on the bionomics of Stomoxys has been in progress in the north of the Mengo District of Buganda Province, Uganda. The experimental area lies in an irregular tract of country of approximately 200 square miles and includes territory ranging from wet seasonal swamps at an altitude of 4,000 ft. above sea-level to wind-swept hills

Vitellogenesis in the stable fly, stomoxys calcitrans
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1987Abstract 1. 1. No female specific proteins were found in the stable fly hemolymph by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 2. 2. Six major yolk polypeptides (YP1, YP2, YP3, YP4, YP5 and YP6) have been identified in the stable fly. Their mol. wt as determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis are 41,100, 42,600, 44,100, 46,600, 48,900 ...

Hemolysin of the stable fly, Stomoxys calcitrans
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1980Abstract 1. 1. A hemolysin found in whole fly homogenates and in midgut homogenates of Stomoxys calcitrans (L.) is heat labile, has a slightly acidic pH optimum, and is non-dialyzable. 2. 2. Hemolytic activity is enhanced by dialysis but not by removal of Ca2+ alone. 3. 3.

Transcellular absorption of lipids in the midgut of the stablefly, Stomoxys calcitrans
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1977Abstract The midgut of Stomoxys calcitrans is subdivided into several zones. The last of these, the lipoid zone is responsible for the absorption of digestion products. The ultrastructure of the lipoid zone cells is described. Analysis of E.M. autoradiographs of 3 H-label derived from absorbed fatty acids shows a strong non-random distribution of ...

[A Stomoxys calcitrans outbreak on a dairy farm].
Angewandte Parasitologie, 1986In late summer and autumn of 1982 Stomoxys calcitrans disturbed cattle on a dairy farm and scourged the people working there. Both actively and passively Stomoxys calcitrans got into the cowsheds from its nearby breeding sites on open silos. The successful fly control combined sanitary measures with the application of pyrethrum insecticide aerosol.
