Abstract
Ovine estrosis is a disease which causes serious economic losses in the herd of small ruminants, particular in sheep, stunted growth, nervous symptoms called \"false whirling\", it is also a disease that we may find in humans, and this affection is very widespread in the world especially in the areas with pastoral breeding. A study carried out from January to June 2019, aiming to study the parasite Oestrus ovis in the adult state and the larval stages L1, L2, and L3. We obtained ten flies following the breeding of 24 third-stage larvae, the study of the larvae resulted in the recognition of the different stages according to the weight, length and width than their morphological characteristics specific to each evolutionary stage. Two first instars larvae or 5.71%, the L2 were 10 (29.57%) and the L3 where 24 (68.57%). We hope that our experimental work will bring a plus to the system and allow other similar works to see the light.
