Abstract

Out of 2326 cattle examined at Istanbul abattoir in 1990-1991, 45 (1.9 %) were found to be infested with Hypoderma lineatum and Hypoderma bovis, with annual mean larval burden of 22.5 larvae per cattle. The more prevalent species was Hypoderma lineatum (1.2 %). For both species, the highest mean larval burden per cattle was in December and the lowest mean was in February. The intensity and infestation rate were significant different between adults and calves where they were greatest in adults. 970 larvae were found in the skin; 679 (70 %) of them were Hypoderma lineatum and only 291 (30 %) were Hypoderma bovis.
