Exhyalanthrax
''Exhyalanthrax'' is a small genus of Bombyliidae, bombyliid Fly, flies. Bombyliids are commonly known as ''bee flies'' due to their resemblance to bees. ''Exhyalanthrax'' are found in the Afrotropical realm and the Palearctic realm. Exhyalanthrax spp. are pupal parasitoids. ''Exhyalanthrax afer'' has been reared from pupae of Tachinidae, tachinid and Ichneumonidae, ichneumonid parasitoids of ''Thaumetopoea pityocampa'' and from the pupae of this species and other Lepidoptera. It has also been bred from cocoons of ''Diprionidae, Neodiprion sertifer''. Several African species have been reared from the puparia of Glossina, tsetse flies and from puparia of other Diptera. An ''Exhyalanthrax'' sp. has also been found preying on cockroach, (''Heterogamisca chopardi'' Uvarov) oothecae in Saudi Arabia. It has been suggested that ''Exhyalanthrax'' might be utilised as Biological control, biological control agents especially in the battle against tsetse flies. Species List *''Exhyalan ...

Exhyalanthrax Afer
''Exhyalanthrax afer'' is a member of the fly family Bombyliidae first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1794.

The pupae of other Lepidoptera and from cocoons of the pine sawfly, ''Neodiprion sertifer ''Neodiprion sertifer'', the European pine sawfly or red pine sawfly, is a sawfly species in the genus ''Neodiprion''.

Bombyliidae
The Bombyliidae are a family of flies, commonly known as bee flies. Adults generally feed on nectar and pollen, some being important pollinators. Larvae are mostly parasitoids of other insects. Overview The Bombyliidae are a large family of flies comprising hundreds of genera, but the life cycles of most species are known poorly, or not at all. They range in size from very small (2 mm in length) to very large for flies (wingspan of some 40 mm).Hull, Frank Montgomery, Bee flies of the world: the genera of the family Bombyliidae Washington, Smithsonian Institution Press 1973 . Downloadable from: https://archive.org/details/beefliesofworl2861973hull When at rest, many species hold their wings at a characteristic "swept back" angle. Adults generally feed on nectar and pollen, some being important pollinators, often with spectacularly long proboscises adapted to plants such as ''Lapeirousia'' species with very long, narrow floral tubes. Unlike butterflies, bee flies hold t ...

Diptera Of Asia
Flies are insects of the order Diptera, the name being derived from the Greek δι- ''di-'' "two", and πτερόν ''pteron'' "wing". Insects of this order use only a single pair of wings to fly, the hindwings having evolved into advanced mechanosensory organs known as halteres, which act as high-speed sensors of rotational movement and allow dipterans to perform advanced aerobatics. Diptera is a large order containing an estimated 1,000,000 species including horse-flies, crane flies, hoverflies and others, although only about 125,000 species have been described. Flies have a mobile head, with a pair of large compound eyes, and mouthparts designed for piercing and sucking (mosquitoes, black flies and robber flies), or for lapping and sucking in the other groups. Their wing arrangement gives them great maneuverability in flight, and claws and pads on their feet enable them to cling to smooth surfaces. Flies undergo complete metamorphosis; the eggs are often laid on the la ...
