meteorological factors influencing host-seeking activity of female simulium luggeri (diptera: simuliidae).the influence of selected meteorological variables on host-seeking activity of parous and nulliparous female simulium luggeri at cattle bait was studied in central saskatchewan. variability in the pattern of diurnal host-seeking probably was attributable to the secondary influence of meteorological parameters on endogenous rhythms that are primarily stimulated by illumination. although some differences occurred, nulliparous and parous female s. luggeri activity was similarly influenced by the me ...19911770519
evaluation of a "cow-type" silhouette trap with and without co2 bait for monitoring populations of adult simulium luggeri (diptera: simuliidae).a "cow-type" silhouette trap with "head" and "body" collecting chambers was evaluated for use in monitoring adult populations of simulium luggeri in saskatchewan. ninety-five percent of the black flies taken were s. luggeri. other species collected included s. vittatum, s. meridionale, s. venustum and s. decorum. traps baited with co2 collected significantly more (p less than 0.01) s. luggeri than unbaited traps. the "body" collecting chamber took significantly more (p less than 0.01) s. luggeri ...19863148688
