Mechanisms for the Dispersal of Parasitic Nematode Larvae 1. Psychodid flies as transport hosts
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 June 2009
Extract
Third stage infective juveniles of the genera Oesophagostomum and Ostertagia were found clinging to the abdomens of species of psychodid flies that breed in faeces. It is suggested that these dipterans may be able to carry parasitic nematode larvae from farm to farm.
