species and abundance of ectoparasitic flies (diptera) in pied flycatcher nests in fennoscandia. | birds host several ectoparasitic fly species with negative effects on nestling health and reproductive output, and with the capability of transmitting avian blood parasites. information on the abundance and distribution of the ectoparasitic fly genera ornithomya (hippoboscidae) and protocalliphora (calliphoridae) in northern europe is still generally poor, and we thus explored their geographic range and occurrence of these flies in the nests of a common avian model species, the pied flycatcher f ... | 2015 | 26691851 |
[diptera fauna from the nests of birds on the volga-kama state preserve]. | 504 nests of 11 species of birds were examined in the volga-kama state reserve. 57,430 specimens of diptera belonging to 19 species and 13 families were collected from the nests. the schemes of the life cycle of diptera, nest-burrow parasites of birds (carnus hemapterus nitzsch, stenepteryx hirundinis l., protocalliphora azurea fallen) are given and some moments of the ecology of nonparasitic species are illustrated. | 2007 | 134336 |
