“…Dipteran species are some of the most serious arthropod pest problems affecting the cultivation of A. bisporus throughout the world (Erler, Polat, Demir, Cetin, & Erdemir, ; Jess, Murchie, & Bingham, ; Sandhu & Bhattal, ; Shamshad, ; Tibbles, Chandler, Mead, Jervis, & Boddy, ). Mushroom yield losses are either directly due to the larvae of mushroom flies feeding on mycelia or mushrooms, or else due to other pests and diseases vectored by the flies (Erler & Polat, ).…”

“…Phorid female oviposition occurs 7-12 days after spawning, or 4-8 days after casing [61,62]. Larvae hatching from the eggs continue their development until they are fully mature, when the larvae stop feeding and migrate upward to the top of the compost or casing layer where they pupate [3,62]. As a short period of the phorid life cycle is spent in a larval stage [63], yield reduction directly due to larval feeding is only problematic at very high fly densities (14-17 larvae per 30 g of compost).…”
