Acroceridae
The Acroceridae are a small family of odd-looking flies. They have a hump-backed appearance with a strikingly small head, generally with a long proboscis for accessing nectar. They are rare and not widely known. The most frequently applied common names are small-headed flies or hunch-back flies. Many are bee or wasp mimics. Because they are parasitoids of spiders, they also are sometimes known as spider flies. Description The Acroceridae vary in size from small to fairly large, about the size of large bees, with a wingspan over 25 mm in some species. As a rule, both sexes have tiny heads and a characteristic hump-backed appearance because of the large, rounded thorax. In appearance, they are compact flies without major bristles, but many species have a bee-like hairiness on their bodies, and some are bee or wasp mimics. In most species, the eyes are holoptic in both sexes, the heads seemingly composed mainly of the large faceted eyes. This is in contrast to many insects ...

Pardosa
''Pardosa'' is a large genus of wolf spiders, commonly known as the thin-legged wolf spiders. It was first described by C. L. Koch, in 1847, with more than 500 described species that are found in all regions of the world. Description They are small to medium size wolf spiders, with clear median and lateral bands on the carapace. They have relatively long legs with long spines on the foot, which can be used to quickly identify some species. Species this genus contains 534 species: * '' Pardosa abagensis'' Ovtsharenko, 1979 – Russia, Abkhazia * '' Pardosa aciculifera'' Chen, Song & Li, 2001 – China * '' Pardosa acorensis'' Simon, 1883 – Azores * '' Pardosa adustella'' (Roewer, 1951) – Russia, Mongolia, China * '' Pardosa aenigmatica'' Tongiorgi, 1966 – Italy, Turkey, Azerbaijan * '' Pardosa afflicta'' (Holmberg, 1876) – Argentina * '' Pardosa agrestis'' ( Westring, 1861) – Palearctic * '' Pardosa agricola'' (Thorell, 1856) – Europe to Kazakhstan * '' Pardosa al ...

Schizocosa Rovneri
''Schizocosa rovneri'' is a species of wolf spider found in the United States. Its habitat is primarily leaf litter Plant litter (also leaf litter, tree litter, soil litter, litterfall, or duff) is dead plant material (such as leaves, bark, needles, twigs, and cladodes) that has fallen to the ground. This detritus or dead organic material and its constituen ... along floodplains. Courtship During courtship, males will bounce and audibly stridulate. Females are more likely to cannibalize males at high temperatures. Ecology This species is a host for multiple species of '' Ogcodes'' parasitoid larvae, including '' Ogcodes borealis'' and '' Ogcodes pallidipennis''.

Insects Described In 1919
Insects (from Latin ') are hexapod invertebrates of the class Insecta. They are the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Insects have a chitinous exoskeleton, a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes, and a pair of antennae. Insects are the most diverse group of animals, with more than a million described species; they represent more than half of all animal species. The insect nervous system consists of a brain and a ventral nerve cord. Most insects reproduce by laying eggs. Insects breathe air through a system of paired openings along their sides, connected to small tubes that take air directly to the tissues. The blood therefore does not carry oxygen; it is only partly contained in vessels, and some circulates in an open hemocoel. Insect vision is mainly through their compound eyes, with additional small ocelli. Many insects can hear, using tympanal organs, which may be on the legs or other parts of the body. The ...

Diptera Of North America
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 more than 150,000 species including horse-flies, crane flies, hoverflies, mosquitoes and others. 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 manoeuvrability 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 larval food-source and the larvae, which lack true limb ...
