Larvae and Pupae of Some Eastern North American Tabanidae (Diptera)

Abstract: Bionomic and phylogenetic research on the Tabanidae is hampered by an inadequate knowledge of their immature stages, the larvae and (or) pupae of only 154 of the approximately 2000 world species being known. The present study is an attempt to partially rectify this situation in North America where it is almost as acute as elsewhere.By means of hand-searching or using a specially designed sieve and multiple Berlese funnel, larvae were obtained from 219 wetland habitats of various types in Ontario, New York, Pen… Show more

“…Identification to species could be done with Teskey’s (1969) key to larvae. For maggots and puparia of Muscidae, once found, Skidmore’s (1985) book might help.…”

“…Two species of Canadian Sarcophagidae, Fletcheromyia fletcheri (Aldrich) and Sarcophaga sarraceniae Riley, are indicators of the peatland-restricted pitcher plant Sarracenia purpurea (Farkas and Brust 1986) and were found in the three treatments. In the Tabanidae (Teskey 1969, Teskey andBurger 1976), a number of species of Hybomitra Enderlein considered characteristic of bogs were found in our sites: H. minuscula (Hine), H. sodalis (Williston), H. trepida (McDunnough), H. typhus (Whitney) and H. pechumani Teskey and Thomas. Several species of Tabanus L. are associated with peatlands, but only T. novaescotiae Macquart was found in restored and abandoned sites.…”
