“…Attack of the pest flies are one of the stressors which has economic and welfare concern in dairy cattle production systems. Cattle weight growth may be reduced by 0.1 kg per day, according to Altunsoy and Kilic (Altunsoy, 2012) [1] , if the animal experiences daily attacks from close to 65 blood-sucking insects. Therefore, substantial action must be taken to protect cattle from tick and fly attacks.…”

“…Therefore, substantial action must be taken to protect cattle from tick and fly attacks. (Altunsoy, 2012) [1] Biting and nuisance flies adversely affect cattle health and reduce farm profitability (Taylor, 2012) [12] since there are few practical solutions to reduce fly pressure, fly control is a constant source of discussion among dairy farmers. The veterinary industry is concerned with about 20 fly families.…”

India is an agriculture-based county. People in India mostly practices mixed farming. Mixed farming constitutes farming along with rearing of livestock. Animal husbandry is a significant source of income for many farmers in India. Numerous vertebrates, including domestic animals such as cows, are severely harmed by ectoparasites, resulting in anaemia, weakness, and even mortality of the host animal. Among the ectoparasites, flies are important carriers of diseases including trypanosomiasis and the bovine leucosis virus, among others. Bovine Leukaemia Virus which is spread by horn flies, is the most prevalent neoplastic illness in cattle. Ectoparasitic infection is the major threat to the maintenance and health of live cattle. Hence, the present study was conducted to analyse some pest flies in cattle and their effect on behavioural response in cattle of the Gavandgaon village of Degloor taluka of Nanded district (M.S.) during June 2022 to August 2022. In this study a total 16 cattle were physically observed to study different pest flies in cattle and their impact on behavioural response in cattle.

The horse-fly fauna of the East Mediterranean is poorly known and, in some geographical areas, has not been studied for decades. The present study summarizes the results of tabanid collections performed over 30 years in the Greek islands (the Cyclades, Dodecanese, North Aegean and Crete) and Cyprus. In total, 18 species were known from the study territory. The present study reports an additional 10 species. Previously, only 1 horsefly species was known from the Dodecanese islands, 1 from the North Aegean islands, and 2 from the Cyclades. This study has raised the number of species to 6, 7, and 9, respectively. The combined taxa for the three island groups have increased from 4 to 17 species. Specifically, the number of species has increased from 3 to 7 in Crete and from 11 to 19 in Cyprus. Additionally, we report 1 new record from the Greek mainland, 1 from the Levantine region, 2 from Lebanon, and 2 from Israel. Four Afrotropical–Palearctic vector species: Atylotus agrestis (Wiedemann, 1828); Tabanus gratus Löw, 1858b; Tabanus sufis Jaennicke, 1867; and Tabanus taeniola Palisot de Beauvois, 1806; are recorded for the first time from Cyprus, and A. agrestis from southern Italy. Their status as invasive species in Europe is discussed, the four species are illustrated.

Tabanidae Fauna (Order: Diptera) of the Arab Countries in the Middle East

Family Tabanidae (Diptera) has cosmopolitan distribution with about 4455 described species. A comprehensive review of literature was conducted to list the recorded species from Arab countries of the Middle East (Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Syria, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen). The study reveals the presence of 110 species in four subfamilies and 13 genera. To the moment, the Tabanidae of the Arab countries of the Middle East is poorly studied. Syria and Lebanon do not have a valid checklist, while Iraq, Palestine and the United Arab Emirates are fragmentarily studied. Jordan and Saudi Arabia were well studied. However, this study did not list any species from Bahrain and Qatar.
