Morphological and genetic variability of blood-sucking fly populations in northeastern Eurasia
Morphological and molecular variation in Ornithomya avicularia was researched using specimens from seven populations spanning Europe, Western Siberia, and the Russian Far East.
Red deer are extremely shy and difficult to see, so male calls were recorded using automatic sound traps set in the habitats of three different populations.
