Horsefly reactions to black surfaces: attractiveness to male and female tabanids versus surface tilt angle and temperature
Tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) are attracted to shiny black targets, prefer warmer hosts against colder ones and generally attack them in sunshine. Horizontally polarised light reflected from surfaces means water for water-seeking male and female tabanids. A shiny black target above the ground,...
