A Review of the Life-History and Habits ofMusca autumnalisDeGeer (Diptera: Muscidae)

Abstract: It was of interest but no great concern when the finding of Musca autumnalis DeGeer in Nova Scotia was reported by Vockeroth (1953). Previously, M. domestica Linnaeus was thought to be the only species of the genus present in North America. Two previous reports of M. autumnalis as corvina (Walker, 1849, 1871) were thought to be misidentifications.

“…The face ßy, Musca autumnalis DeGeer (Diptera: Muscidae), is a common livestock pest that frequently feeds on secretions from the eyes, mouth, and nostrils of cattle; its biology was reviewed by Ode and Matthysse (1967), Teskey (1960), and Pickens and Miller (1980).
