Bot flies
... of Bot flies are: sheep bot fly (Oestrus ovis), Gasterophilus intestinalis, Hypoderma diana, Rhinoestrus purpureus, Hypoderma Acteon, Crivellia Silenus, the warble fly (Hypoderma bovis), Hypoderma lineatum and Pharyngomyia picta. Bot flies reach body lengths of 10-13 mm. They are covered in thick furry hair. The mouth parts of this fly are often highly degenerated, thus many species do not eat solid food. Some species, however, take in fluid. The well developed, large wings have a central vei...

...trees, hills and ridges. Egg laying takes place on host animals, most commonly on hoofed mammals. The larvae always live parasitically in the interior of the host animals (endoparasites). Many species choose specific animals as the host - which body orifice of the host animal is chosen for egg laying also depends on the species. The hatching maggots (larvae) develop accordingly in the nasal mucous membrane, the throat or beneath the skin (subcutis) of their host animals. Egg laying can be a ...
