| Summary: | Objective of research: On the basis of the original material collected from 2014 to 2016, to study the species composition and features of the ecology of flies (Diptera, Hippoboscidae) parasitizing birds in forest biotopes of the north-eastern part of Meshchera. Material and methods: In 2014 - 2016, more than 9,000 birds were caught, from which 174 louse-flies (Hippoboscidae) were collected and examined. Results and discussion: The fauna of flies parasitizing birds in the forests of the northeastern Meshchera (Vladimir region) is represented by two species: Ornithomya avicularia L., 1758 and Ornithomya fringillina Curtis, 1836. For the studied area, the question of the seasonal and diurnal dynamics of the bloodsucker-parasites of birds was first considered, the frequency of occurrence of flies in the different species of birds, as well as in young and adult birds was determined. For the first time, the connection of flies with such species of birds as: Locustella fluviatilis (Wolf, 1810), Acrocephalus palustris (Bechstein, 1798), Parus cristatus (L., 1758), Emberiza schoeniclus (L., 1758), Regulus regulus (L., 1758). |
