Hippoboscidae
__NOTOC__ Hippoboscidae, the louse flies or keds, are obligate parasites of mammals and birds. In this family, the winged species can fly at least reasonably well, though others with vestigial or no wings are flightless and highly apomorphic. As usual in their superfamily Hippoboscoidea, most of the larval development takes place within the mother's body, and pupation occurs almost immediately. The sheep ked, ''Melophagus ovinus'', is a wingless, reddish-brown fly that parasitizes sheep. The Neotropical deer ked, ''Lipoptena mazamae'', is a common ectoparasite of white-tailed deer (''Odocoileus virginianus'') in the southeastern United States. Both winged and wingless forms may be seen. A common winged species is ''Hippobosca equina'', called "the louse fly" among riders. Species in other genera are found on birds; for example, ''Ornithomya bequaerti'' has been collected from birds in Alaska. Two species of the Hippoboscidae – '' Ornithoica (Ornithoica) podargi'' and ''Ornit ...

Lipoptena Cervi
''Lipoptena cervi'', the deer ked or deer fly, is a species of biting fly in the family of louse flies, Hippoboscidae. These flies are commonly encountered in temperate areas of Europe, Siberia, and northern China. They have been introduced to North America. They are parasites of elk, deer, and other deer family members, burrowing through the fur and sucking the blood of the host animals. Adults are only in length and brownish in colour. Their bodies are flat and elastic, making their removal difficult. ''L. cervi'' is a poor flier and can only fly for short distances. Once the insect reaches its target, it sheds its wings and starts burrowing through the fur. Bite Although their life cycle depends on deer, they may on rare occasions bite humans, producing responses ranging from unnoticeable to highly allergic. Initially, the bite may be barely noticeable and leaves little or no trace. Within 3 days, the site may develop into a hard, reddened welt. The accompanying itch ...

Eugène Séguy
Eugene Séguy (21 April 1890 – 1 June 1985) was a French entomologist and artist who specialised in Diptera. He held a chair of entomology at the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle in Paris from 1956 to 1960. He is also known for establishing the Diptera section at that museum. This entomologist is often confused with a French artist with a similar name: Émile-Allain Séguy (1877–1951). The latter is known for his pochoir artworks representing plants and insects.

Lipoptena Mazamae
''Lipoptena mazamae'', the Neotropical deer ked, is a fly from the family Hippoboscidae. They are blood-feeding parasites of the white-tailed deer - ''Odocoileus virginianus'' in the southeastern United States and Central America, the red brocket deer - ''Mazama americana'' in Mexico to northern Argentina, and also an incidental parasite of domestic cattle, Cougars - ''Puma concolor'', and man. Deer keds are small brown, flattened flies . Females are slightly larger than males, with a body length of 3.5-4.5 mm for females 3 mm for males. They have a tough protective exoskeleton to prevent them from being crushed. They shed their wings upon finding a suitable host. As in all Hippoboscidae, both males and females are blood feeders. They are often misidentified as ticks. The female fly will produce a single larva at a time, retaining the larva internally until it is ready to pupate. The larva feeds on the secretions of a milk gland in the uterus of the female. After thr ...
