All stages appear to feed on the same kinds of bats, Man Nymphs and adults have bitten us in caves on a few occasions. They readily do so when allowed to in the laboratory (Hoogstraal 1952A,195a,1955B).

Exceptionally large females may lay single egg batches of almost two hundred eggs over a two or three day period. An average size female deposits from 35 to 40 eggs in a single batch usually on a vertical surface. Afterwards, she _ 92 -.
