STUDIES ON OESTRUS OVIS L.

Abstract
The incidence of infection of Oestrus ovis larvae in lambs has been determined. Flies were obtained from larvae which pupated in the laboratory. The three larval stages of the fly were studied and characteristic features illustrated. Information relative to the rate of growth of the larvae was obtained from a routine examination of infected animals and experimental infection of lambs. The effect of the parasites on these experimentally infected animals was noted.
