Lords of the flies: dipteran migrants are diverse, abundant and ecologically important
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 4, Page 1635-1659, August 2025.ABSTRACT Insect migrants are hugely abundant, with recent studies identifying the megadiverse order Diptera as the major component of many migratory assemblages. Despite this, their migratory behaviour has been widely overlooked in favour of more ‘charismatic’ migrant insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, and moths.

, 1997 The larval host associations and mode of parasitism of Bombyliidae (bee flies) are summarized and analysed within an evolutionary framework. We discuss difficulties in extracting information from the (almost 1000) host records, noting that most ...

Five new records of bee flies (Bombyliidae, Diptera) from Saudi Arabia with zoogeographical remarks
ZooKeys, 2015 Five bee-fly species (Bombyliidae, Diptera) have been listed in this paper as new to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Four of the recorded species have been identified to the level of species, namely: Bombomyia discoidea (Fabricius, 1794), Spogostylum ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 438-445, May 2025.Pollinator abundance and species richness decline with building height. Although our study was limited to eight sites, it emphasises the importance of extensive green roofs (EGRs) on low‐rise buildings. Bee abundance and species richness increased with stonecrop bloom amount, but communities determined from distinct stonecrop species were more alike to

Evolution of Lower Brachyceran Flies (Diptera) and Their Adaptive Radiation with Angiosperms
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 The Diptera (true flies) is one of the most species-abundant orders of Insecta, and it is also among the most important flower-visiting insects. Dipteran fossils are abundant in the Mesozoic, especially in the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous. Here, we

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 466-477, May 2025.Abstract Elongated nectar‐feeding mouthparts have evolved in several fly families, most notably Nemestrinidae, Bombyliidae and Tabanidae. Plants pollinated by these “long‐proboscid flies” tend to have relatively specialized pollination systems. In this review, I focus on the blood‐ and nectar‐feeding horsefly genus Philoliche (Tabanidae: Pangoniinae ...
