  • Notes on Some Blood-Sucking and Other Arthropods (Except Culicidae) Collected in Macedonia in 1917
    153 NOTES ON SOME BLOOD-SUCKING AND OTHER ARTHROPODS (EXCEPT CULICIDAE) COLLECTED IN MACEDONIA IN 1917. By JAMES WATERSTON, Lieut. R.A.M.C., Entomologist to the Malaria Commission, Salonika. In the course of the operations for controlling mosquitos on the Macedonian front some time, necessarily limited, was devoted to collecting parasitic or noxious arthropods, and a list is here given, more particularly of those affecting man. One or two other noteworthy species are also recorded. ANOPLURA. Trichodectes subrostratus, N. Very plentiful on a kitten, Kalamaria, 8, xii. Pediculus capitis, De G., P. humanus, L., and Phthirus pubis, L. All occur. The last not commonly met with. Polyplax spinulosa, Burm. Several on a young rat, Kalamaria. RHYNCHOTA. Geocoris albipennis, F. Twice, at widely separated places, I was bitten by individuals of this species. Fortunately, on the second occasion the insect was secured without damage. Lahana, ix. Cimex lectularius, L. One of the pests of Macedonia ; only too common in wooden huts. This species drops on one's bed from roofs, unless prevented by mosquito netting. DIPTERA. Phlebotomus papatasii, Scop. Common at Kalamaria round electric lamps in huts, and also at Karasouli and Cidemli; on the Struma at Sakavca, etc. Phlebotomus perniciosus, Ann. 5 c? 14 $, Karasouli and Kalamaria, viii. Simulium sp. In hill streams near Lahana, Paprat and Oreovica larvae of one or more species of this genus were obtained, but attempts to rear the imago were unsuccessful. Pangonia marginata, F. $ (Capt. A. G. Carment). Pangonia sp. cJ, $, near variegata, F., but possibly representing two distinct species (Capt. Treadgold). Chrysops coecutiens, L.

Parasites Vectors (2020) 13:461 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-020-04316-7 Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Incompletely observed: niche estimation for six frequent European horsefy species (Diptera, Tabanoidea, Tabanidae) Dorian D. Dörge1*, Sarah Cunze1 and Sven Klimpel1,2 Abstract Background: More than 170 species of tabanids are known in Europe, with many occurring only in limited areas or having become very rare in the last decades. They continue to spread various diseases in animals and are responsible for livestock losses in developing countries. The current monitoring and recording of horsefies is mainly conducted throughout central Europe, with varying degrees of frequency depending on the country. To the detriment of tabanid research, little cooperation exists between western European and Eurasian countries. Methods: For these reasons, we have compiled available sources in order to generate as complete a dataset as possi- ble of six horsefy species common in Europe. We chose Haematopota pluvialis, Chrysops relictus, C. caecutiens, Tabanus bromius, T. bovinus and T. sudeticus as ubiquitous and abundant species within Europe. The aim of this study is to esti- mate the distribution, land cover usage and niches of these species. We used a surface-range envelope (SRE) model in accordance with our hypothesis of an underestimated distribution based on Eurocentric monitoring regimes. Results: Our results show that all six species have a wide range in Eurasia, have a broad climatic niche and can there- fore be considered as widespread generalists. Areas with modelled habitat suitability cover the observed distribution and go far beyond these. This supports our assumption that the current state of tabanid monitoring and the recorded distribution signifcantly underestimates the actual distribution.

  • Behavioral Responses of Tabanidae and Stomoxys Calcitrans to Unbaited and Baited Nzi and Horse Pal Traps in Southern Sweden
    Journal of Biology and Life Science ISSN 2157-6076 2020, Vol. 11, No. 2 Behavioral Responses of Tabanidae and Stomoxys calcitrans to Unbaited and Baited Nzi and Horse Pal Traps in Southern Sweden Gabriela Vaduva Department of Biology, Lund University, Lund 22362, Sweden. E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 31, 2020 Accepted: September 26, 2020 doi:10.5296/jbls.v11i2.17806 URL: https://doi.org/10.5296/jbls.v11i2.17806 Abstract The distribution and species diversity of tabanids and stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans Linnaeus, 1758, in the research area, Hästhult (wood pasture) in Sweden, as well as the behavioral responses of biting flies to visual and olfactory cues were highlighted by this study. Beyond the control of tabanids and stable flies through the Nzi and Horse Pal traps that act as a surrogate host, this study sought to demonstrate the attractiveness of biting flies to these traps by comparing the results of the two periods in which the traps were unbaited and baited. The odor attractants, such as urine (a mixture of more than phenol) and acetone used to increase trap yields, made the difference to the Horse Pal and Nzi traps for S. calcitrans (L) because the number of flies caught was significantly higher. Through this study, Nzi trap with bait and Horse Pal trap with and without bait were tested for the first time as regards the tabanids and S. calcitrans (L) in Scandinavia. Surprisingly, the number of tabanids caught in the Nzi trap was equal in both situations with or without bait. The result underlined the idea that the Nzi trap manages to catch a large number of tabanids even in the absence of attractants.
