The larvae may hatch out after the eggs have been swallowed or they may bore into the skin. They develop inside the body of the victim, penetrate the tissues and eventually emerge leaving tiny holes in the skin. Hypoderma bovis, the Cattle Warble Fly is a well known enemy to the farmer and to the leather industry. 2, record 3, English, - warble%20fly
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The bot fly of horses has a similar life-history but the mature larvae pass out with the faeces instead of through the skin. For this and other reasons warble flies and bot flies are sometimes classed in two different families. In some related species such as the sheep nostril fly, Oestrus ovis, the female insect deposits live larvae instead of eggs. 2, record 3, English, - warble%20fly
