Download or read book The Tabanidae Diptera of Mali written by James T. Goodwin and published by Entomological Society of America. This book was released on 1982-07-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The family Tabanidae, often referred to as horse and deer flies, contains approximately 3800 species in 125 genera worldwide. The adults are large of size, strong flyers and often of striking appearance. The females of the majority of species are blood-feeders and are considered to be of considerable economic importance, due to their known and potential role as vectors of disease and to their nuisance value. Because of their importance, the adults are frequently collected and are relatively well known in many parts of the world. Chainey and Oldroyd (1980) recognized 727 species representing 31 genera from the Afrotropical Region. At the time of this publication, the most recent taxonomic treatment of the Afrotropical fauna was the three-volume series by Oldroyd (1952, 1954, 1957). This work serves as the basic reference for the identification of specimens from the region, but it must be supplemented by numerous shorter papers that have appeared in recent years which include descriptions of species not recognized at the time of Oldroyd's work, as well as numerous nomenclatural changes and other information of taxonomic significance

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surprising though it seems, the world faces almost as great a threat today from arthropod-borne diseases as it did in the heady days of the 1950s when global eradication of such diseases by eliminating their vectors with synthetic insecticides, particularly DDT, seemed a real possibility. Malaria, for example, still causes tremendous morbidity and mortality throughout the world, especially in Africa. Knowledge of the biology of insect and arachnid disease vectors is arguably more important now than it has ever been. Biological research directed at the development of better methods of control becomes even more important in the light of the partial failure of many control schemes that are based on insecticide- although not all is gloom, since basic biological studies have contributed enormously to the outstanding success of international control programmes such as the vast Onchocerciasis Control Programme in West Africa. It is a sine qua non for proper understanding of the epidemiology and successful vector control of any human disease transmitted by an arthropod that all concerned with the problem - medical entomologist, parasitologist, field technician - have a good basic understanding of the arthropod's biology. Knowledge will be needed not only of its direct relationship to any parasite or pathogen that it transmits but also of its structure, its life history and its behaviour - in short, its natural history. Above all, it will be necessary to be sure that it is correctly identified.

This book was released on 1983-01-01 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The so-called "lined horse flies, " "striped horse flies, " or "lineola complex" have been among the most difficult of American Tabanus species to characterize and identify. Hine (1906), Krober (1933), Philip (1942), and Fairchild (1942) all devoted special publications to segments of the group, while Bequaert (1940a) gave a key to the Trinidad species. No one so far has attempted to bring together all the Nearctic and Neotropical species. In this monograph, I give a synonymical list of the species here considered valid, an alphabetical checklist of the names that have been used for species of the group, the valid names in boldface, keys to both sexes, and notes on individual species, arranged in alphabetical order. Citations to the original descriptions of names discussed may be found in the catalogues of Philip, in Stone et al. (1965), or Fairchild (1971). Those described subsequent to 1971 appear with appropriate citation in the checklist.
