Key aspects of the biology of snail-killing Sciomyzidae flies.
The biology of snail-killing flies (Diptera: Sciomyzidae) has been studied intensively over the past half-century, especially over the past decade. Today, sciomyzids are biologically the best-known group of higher Diptera. The overarching research objectives are evaluation of sciomyzids as biocontrols of disease-carrying or agriculturally important snails and slugs and as a paradigm group for t...

متن کاملimprovement in laboratory rearing of immature stages of snail-killing fly sepedon sphegea (fabricius) and their survival (insecta, diptera, sciomyzidae)
the biology of immature stages of s.sphegea and different techniques for their laboratory rearing has been studied during the past five years (1972-77). this fly is one of the 18 iranian species of snail-killing flies which is dominant in the focus area of schistosomiasis (khuzestan province) in the south-west of iran. the following procedures improved appreciably our laboratory rearin-technics...
متن کاملThe Black Flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) of Iran.
Although Iran has a large geographic area encompassing 13 ecoregions, its simuliid fauna remains largely unexplored. To begin redressing this faunal gap, we reviewed literature records and coupled morphological and chromosomal identifications of material newly collected from 16 sites in Iran. Twenty-three nominal species are now recognized, including new country records for Simulium crassicaulu...
