Abstract

The blow flies, Phaenicia eximia (Wiedemann) and Cochliomyia macellaria (F.), oviposited nocturnally on ground beef under artificial lighting of at least 1,500 footcandles at temperatures 26°C or higher during onsets of low-atmospheric pressure at study sites near Snook, Texas, during 2003. Nocturnal oviposition was replicated five times during 14 spring season experiments and three times during 14 summer season experiments conducted under similar conditions.
