Aiming to know the population dynamics of horn fly on cattle in the municipality of Selvíria, MS, Brazil, a study was conducted from March 2004 to June 2005 in the Education, Research and Extension Farm, from Unesp – Campus de Ilha Solteira, located in the municipality of Selvíria, MS. It was used 15 cows of the Guzera breed and 15 crossbred (Guzera X Holstein-Friesian), respectively 3 and 4 years old, naturally infested. During the experimental period these animals did not receive any insecticide treatment. Visual fly counting by on back region of the animals was carried out at 14 day interval. The horn fly showed two peaks of infestation during the year, one in April and another in October. In the months of highest infestation, the average number of flies did not exceed a 104. The months in which was significant difference between crossbred and Guzera breed was in April, May, August and September 2004 and February, March and April 2005, always with crossbred with higher infestation. In the region studied Haematobia irritans was present throughout the year.Objetivando conhecer a dinâmica populacional da mosca-dos-chifres em bovinos no município de Selvíria, MS, foi conduzido um experimento no período de março de 2004 a junho de 2005 na Fazenda de Ensino, Pesquisa e Extensão (FEPE), Unesp - Campus de Ilha Solteira, localizada no município de Selvíria, MS. Foram utilizadas 15 vacas da raça Guzerá e 15 mestiças (Guzerá x Holandesa), de 3 a 4 anos, naturalmente infestadas. Durante o período experimental estes animais não receberam tratamento inseticida e a cada 14 dias foi realizada a contagem visual de moscas sobre a região cervico-dorso-lombar. Os resultados obtidos permitiram verificar que a mosca-dos-chifres apresentou dois picos de infestação durante o ano, um no mês de abril e o outro no mês de outubro. Nos meses de maior infestação, o número médio de moscas não ultrapassou a 104. Na comparação entre as raças, os meses em que houve diferença significativa foram abril, maio, agosto e setembro de 2004, e fevereiro, março e abril de 2005, com a raça mestiça sempre apresentando maior infestação. Na região estudada Haematobia irritans estava presente durante todo o ano.
