  • Title: Alighting sites of female Tabanidae (Diptera) at Rekomitjie, Zimbabwe.
    Author: Phelps RJ, Holloway MT.
    Journal: Med Vet Entomol; 1990 Jul; 4(3):349-56. PubMed ID: 2133002.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-one species of Tabanidae from four genera were recorded. Where samples were large enough, the preferred alighting sites were determined for the tabanids, and differences in such sites were found for species in three genera. The lower legs of the bait ox were the preferred alighting site for 61.8% of the flies. In the season of peak fly numbers, the bait ox was under stress from the tabanids.
