Abstract
Little information is available on the species prevalence and seasonal distribution of flies which frequent the major fly breeding sites in the urban areas of the United States. To study this aspect of fly ecology, trapping surveys were conducted in the vicinity of the copious fly production sources at Muskegon and Grand Haven, Michigan; Cohoes, New York; Topeka, Kansas; and Phoenix, Arizona, during 1949 and 1950. The principal sites investigated were garbage dumps, slaughterhouses, hog feeding farms, horse stables, and a poultry ranch. A summary of the survey areas is depicted in Table I.
