Abstract | ||
The Big Head Myiasis Fly Chrysomya megacephala ( Fab. ) is considered to be one of the most important pests caused health problems to animals 0f Farm ;The present study concerned some biological aspects of this insect. Result showed that temperature and relative humidity had influenced on the biological and ecological aspects of the Big Head myiasis fly , the eggs didn’t hatch at 17.55 ċ and 64.0 % Rh+ . and also had influenced on larval and Pupal period , as well as mortality . At 35.15 ċ and 29.8 Rh+ pupa didn’t emerged , and mortality was 100 %. Life span’s average for both adult was 37.0 days at 27.0 ċ and 44.8 % Rh+ . At the same degree the longevity was reached 25.4 & 29.7 days for males and females respectively .The optimum temperature for laying eggs was 27.0 ċ | ||
