A Study of the pupal developments of Sarcophaga argyrostoma (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830)
In this study, the pupal development ofSarcophaga (Liopygia) argyrostoma (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830), which larviposits on dead bodies, was examined in Turkey. The pupal development periods ofS. argyrostoma and the range of the beginning hours (maximum and minimum) of these periods were determined at a constant temperature of 20, 25, and 30  °C. When all of the temperatures were considered, it was determined that 23 pupal development stages were similar; however, the development times shortened as the temperature increased. Adult emergence was observed at 459 (±1.41), 289.5 (±1.52), and 227 (±1.89) h at 20, 25, and 30 ...

Molecular survey of haemoplasmas in shelter dogs and associations with Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato
This study aimed to assess the occurrence of canine haemoplasma infection in domestic dogs and its possible trans‐stadial transmission by Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato (Ixodida: Ixodidae) in shelter dogs in Diyarbakır Province in southeast Turkey. Blood samples (n = 282) collected from domestic dogs were analysed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the presence of canine haemoplasma. Fully engorged nymphs (n = 204) were removed from dogs that were positive for canine haemoplasma by PCR and maintained in an incubator at 28 °C for moulting. Unfed ticks (n = 2185) comprising 2100 nymphs and 85 adult...
