Heleomyzidae
The Heleomyzidae is a small family of true flies in the insect order Diptera. Over 740 described species of Heleomyzidae occur in about 76 generaPape, Thomas, Vladimir Blagoderov, and Michail B. Mostovski. "Order Diptera Linnaeus, 1758." Animal Biodiversity. Magnolia Press, 2011. distributed throughout the world. Description Heleomyzids are small to medium-sized flies which vary in colour from yellow to reddish yellow or reddish brown to black. The wings often have small but distinctly longer, well-spaced spines mixed with the shorter spines along the leading edge and the crossveins are often clouded. Taxonomy Over 740 described species of Heleomyzidae occur in about 76 genera and 22 tribes distributed throughout the world; the greatest number occur in the Holarctic region. Around 100 species of Heleomyzidae are found in North America. Most of the subfamilies have been commonly recognized as families in the past, but are now included within the Heleomyzidae.

Tapeigaster
''Tapeigaster'' is a genus of medium to large sized flies in the family Heleomyzidae. Eleven species are currently described, all endemic to the temperate regions of southern and eastern Australia. Description Adults of this genus are medium to large sized flies of medium to robust build with rounded heads, bristles on the thorax, spines on the femora, and wings that lack any dark markings. The exact morphology of the reproductive system differs between species, with specific differences more noticeable in the male reproductive systems than in the female reproductive systems. This genus is associated with fungi, with the larvae of several species documented living inside the fruiting bodies of fungi and adults commonly found on or near mushrooms, including species from the genera ''Agaricus'', ''Amanita'', and ''Boletus''. Taxonomy and history ''Tapeigaster'' was first described by French entomologist Pierre-Justin-Marie Macquart in 1847, placing it in the family Sciomyzidae ...

Suilliinae
Suilliinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Heleomyzidae. The two genera in this subfamily were formerly placed the subfamily Heleomyzinae, but they are now considered to make up a subfamily of their own. Description Suilliinae differ from other Heleomyzidae in that their orbital plates angle inward, away from the inner margins of the eyes. They are often associated with fungi. Taxonomy Suilliinae contains the following genera: * ''Suillia ''Suillia'' is a genus of fly, flies in the family (biology), family Heleomyzidae.

Sphaeroceridae
Sphaeroceridae are a family of true flies in the order Diptera, often called small dung flies, lesser dung flies or lesser corpse flies due to their saprophagous habits. They belong to the typical fly suborder Brachycera as can be seen by their short antennae, and more precisely they are members of the section Schizophora. There are over 1,300 species and about 125 genera accepted as valid today, but new taxa are still being described. Unlike the large "corpse flies" or blow-flies of the family Calliphoridae and the large dung flies of the family Scathophagidae, the small dung flies are members of the schizophoran subsection Acalyptratae. Among their superfamily Sphaeroceroidea, they seem to be particularly close relatives of the family Heleomyzidae. Description and ecology Dung flies are small to minute, usually dull-colored flies with characteristically thickened first tarsomere of the posterior leg. The first tarsal segment is less than times as long as the sec ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Leander Czerny
Leander (Franz) Czerny (4 October 1859, Modřice, Moravia – 22 November 1944, Pettenbach, Upper Austria) was an Austrian entomologist mainly interested in Diptera. Biography Czerny, who wrote extensively on Diptera between 1900 and 1939, describing many genera and species, was a major contributor to Erwin Lindner's ''Die Fliegen der paläarktischen Region'' ("The Flies of the Palaearctic Region"), the most significant work on the group in the 20th century. Czerny wrote the sections on the following families:- * Heleomyzidae, Trichoscelidae, Chyromyidae (1927) * Anthomyzidae, Opomyzidae, Tethinidae, Clusiidae (1928) * Micropezidae (Tylidae), Neridrinae, Platypezidae (as Clythiidae), Dryomyzidae, Neottiophilidae (1930) * Lauxaniidae (Sapromyzidae) (1932) * Musidoridae ( Lonchopteridae), Lonchaeidae (1934) * Chamaemyiidae ( Ochthiphilidae) (1936) He was also abbot of the Benedictine Kremsmünster Abbey from 1905 to 1929 and collected there as well as in Pettenbach ...

Insect Wing
Insect wings are adult outgrowths of the insect exoskeleton that enable insects to fly. They are found on the second and third thoracic segments (the mesothorax and metathorax), and the two pairs are often referred to as the forewings and hindwings, respectively, though a few insects lack hindwings, even rudiments. The wings are strengthened by a number of longitudinal veins, which often have cross-connections that form closed "cells" in the membrane (extreme examples include the dragonflies and lacewings). The patterns resulting from the fusion and cross-connection of the wing veins are often diagnostic for different evolutionary lineages and can be used for identification to the family or even genus level in many orders of insects. Physically, some insects move their flight muscles directly, others indirectly. In insects with direct flight, the wing muscles directly attach to the wing base, so that a small downward movement of the wing base lifts the wing itself upward. Those i ...

Fungi
A fungus ( : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related organisms, named the ''Eumycota'' (''t ...
