Extract

Flies of the genus Thaumatomyia Zenker (=Chloropisca Loew) are small but common, and identification is frequenlly requested for faunal, ecological or other studies. Their highly polished, glabrous, usually yellow and black striped appearance stands out sharply among the many kinds of small dark flies captured by sweeping.
