“…Depner (1961) observed Þrst diapause in pupae from eggs laid in late July to mid-August in Alberta. In contrast, diapause occurred later in other locations, beginning in pats formed in early to midSeptember in Missouri (Thomas et al 1987), mid-to late-September in Arkansas (Klein and Lancaster 1992) and Mississippi (Hoelscher and Combs 1971), and early to mid-October in Texas (Kunz et al 1972;Kunz and Cunningham 1977;Thomas and Kunz 1986). Combined with the present data, there appears to be a clear N-S gradient in date of diapause induction.…”

“…4). In Texas, horn ßies emerged from eggs laid as late as October, but not from November (Kunz et al 1972, Kunz andCunningham 1977). In Mississippi and Arkansas, emergence in the fall ceased in pats from mid-October onward Combs 1971, Klein andLancaster 1992).…”

“…Temporal patterns in diapause induction have been studied in Missouri (Thomas et al 1987), in Arkansas (Klein and Lancaster 1992), in Mississippi (Hoelscher and Combs 1971), and in Texas (Kunz et al 1972); and overwintering survival has been measured in Texas (Thomas and Kunz 1986). The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the component dynamics of diapause induction and overwintering survival under Þeld conditions in Alberta, near the northern limit of the horn ßyÕs distribution in North America.…”

“…However, destruction of other arthropods within the manure pat makes its application of questionable value (Blume et al, 1974). These materials are also of little use to individual producers because adults can migrate from neighboring premises in sufficient numbers to maintain damaging adult populations on herds (Kunz et al, 1972).…”

Long term study ofHaematobia irritans(Diptera: Muscidae) seasonal distribution in central Argentina with focus on winter fly abundance

Summary :The seasonal distribution of Haematobia irritans (Linnaeus, 1758) was evaluated at 31° 1 2' S -61° 29' W, Santa Fe, Argentina from November 1 992 to August 2000 by weekly fly counts on 20 Holstein cows not treated against ectoparasites. The analysis was mainly focused on winter fly abundance. Two peaks of abundance were found from spring to autumn. Adults of H. irritans were consistently found on cattle during winter, with increasing numbers from the end of July to late August. The only climatic parameter soundly correlated with the four week period, before each winter fly count, was the mean air temperature with the exception of year 1998. No significant relationship was found between level of cow infestation and relative humidity, saturation deficit and rainfall. Horn fly infestation on cows was lower than 20 % from end of June to end of August only in 1995, when mean air temperature was consistently lower than 1 ° C during the four week period previous to most fly counts. Conversely, the mean temperature was higher than 1 2° C previous to fly counts in 1998, when most cows remained infested. The results indicate that a proportion (unknown) of immature stages of H. irritans were insensitive to diapause inducing factors and developed through winter.
