Abstract
Abundance of warble fly larvae Hypoderma tarandi (L.) (Diptera:oestridae) in reindeer Rangifer tarandus tarandus (L.) and its relation to reindeer postcalving migration
Highlights
Intensities o f warble fly larvae Hypoderma tarandi (L.) were examined in slaughtered reindeer Rangifer tarandus tarandus (L.) from different summer grazing areas ofFinnmark county, NorthernNorway
T o test the hypothesis that larval abundance decreases as post-calving migration distance increases, herds with differing migration lengths were sampled
Herds with post-calving migrations have significantly lower larval abundances than herds remaining on the calving grounds the whole summer
