R.S. Vernon and J.H. Borden (1983)
Dispersion of marked-released Hylemya antiqua (Meigen) (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) in an onion field
Environmental Entomology 12 (3), 646-649
Abstract: Appropriately aged and marked Hylemya antiqua (Meigen) adults released in a 0.8-ha onion field dispersed slowly. Of 2,956 adults released, 38% were recaptured within 6 days on yellow sticky traps baited with lacerated whole onions. Results indicated that properly preconditioned laboratory-reared H. antiqua can be effectively used in bait preference studies in the field.
