Evaluation of the effect of (HP88) on (Linnaeus, 1758) larvae (Diptera: Muscidae) in sugarcane bagasse ash.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the EPN HP88 on larvae in sugarcane bagasse ash. Groups of 10 stable fly larvae were placed in Petri dishes containing filter paper and bagasse ash. Concentrations of 50, 150 and 250 EPNs/larva of in four milliliters of distilled water were added to each plate.

Infection and reinfection of Stomoxys calcitrans larvae (Diptera: Muscidae) by entomopathogenic nematodes in different times of exposure.

Stomoxys calcitrans is a hematophagous dipteran. Several agents are used in biological control, including entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). Bioassay I involved an evaluation of the effect of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 and Heterorhabditis baujardi LPP7 on S.
