Abstract:Stage specific survival of larvae and pupae of the common cattle grub, Hypoderma lineatum de Villers, was compared in cattle artificially infested with larvae delivered by subcutaneous injection as a single infestation of 100 larvae, in trickle infestations of either two doses of 50 larvae, separated by 15 days, or in four doses of 25 larvae, separated by 9, 6, and 6 days, respectively. The duration of the migratory and 'warble' phases were also compared between treatments. The kinetics of the antibody response was monitored throughout the larval development by ELISA. No difference was noted in the level of antibodies among the three treatments. Mortality of first-instars differed among the infestation groups with mortality in the single pulse infestation group
