Abstract
DESPITE the potential or actual importance of bloodsucking insects in the transmission of pathogenic micro-organisms, investigation of the life-histories of the European species of the Tabanidæ, including that of the cleg, the most common of our palæarctic species, has been comparatively neglected. Hitherto the number of larval stages has not been ascertained in any European tabanid species, and for the rest this has been determined only in one bivoltine North American species1 and in five trivoltine Indian species.2
