Parasites of Filth-Breeding Diptera in Poultry Houses in North Central Florida
Abstract
Collections of puparia of synanthropic Diptera in poultry houses in north central Florida in 1973 revealed that 5 species of parasitic Hymenoptera in 3 families attack the pupal stage of the most common pest species, Musca domestica L. A 6th species, Trichopria n. sp., was collected only from pupae of the soldier fly, Hermetia illucens (L.).Downloads
