Abstract:
The presence of tabanids and muscoid fly (Diptera Brachycera) parasites of horses in a stable/manège near Verona (Northern Italy) is reported. Tabanus quatuornotatus, T. glaucopis, T. exclusus, Hybomitra muehlfeldi, Haematopota pandazisi, Stomoxys calcitrans and Haematobia irritans were the blood-sucking species directly found on horses. Musca domestica, Ophyra sp. and Fannia canicularis were the flies most frequently collected by sticky traps in the stable.
