White Pekin ducklings kept outdoors in Algonquin Park, Ontario, frequently become infected with Ornithofilaria fallisensis. Ducklings exposed during the black-fly seasons in 1952–1955 became infected. The microfilaria of O. fallisensis developed to the infective stage in Simulium venustum Say, S. parnassum Mall., S. rugglesi Nicholson and Mickel, and various members of the subgenus Eusimulium identified as S. euryadminiculum Davies, S. croxtoni Nicholson and Mickel, and S. latipes Meigen. Only the last four species were found feeding naturally on the ducks in 1955. The microfilaria did not develop significantly in in several species of mosquitoes nor in Culicoides sp. Members of the subgenus Eusimulium were collected from ducks in 1955 only during the early part of the black-fly season whereas S. rugglesi was collected from May 26 to the middle of July. Ducklings exposed when these ornithophilic simuluds were active became infected and a consideration of the times after exposure at which microfilariae app...
