Animal

Animals are multicellular eukaryotic organisms that form the biological kingdom Animalia.

Arthropod

An arthropod (from Greek ἄρθρον arthron, "joint" and πούς pous, "foot") is an invertebrate animal having an exoskeleton (external skeleton), a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages.

Bat

Bats are mammals of the order Chiroptera; with their forelimbs adapted as wings, they are the only mammals naturally capable of true and sustained flight.

Evolution

Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.

Fly

True flies are insects of the order Diptera, the name being derived from the Greek δι- di- "two", and πτερόν pteron "wings".

Friedrich August Rudolph Kolenati

Friedrich August Rudolph Kolenati (12 September 1812 – 17 July 1864) was a Czech-German botanist and zoologist active primarily in Prague and Brno.

Fungus

A fungus (plural: 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.

Genus

A genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms, as well as viruses, in biology.

Hippoboscoidea

Hippoboscoidea is a superfamily of the Calyptratae.

Hyperparasite

A hyperparasite is a parasite whose host, often an insect, is also a parasite, often specifically a parasitoid.

New!!: Streblidae and Hyperparasite · See more »

Insect

Insects or Insecta (from Latin insectum) are hexapod invertebrates and the largest group within the arthropod phylum.

Justin Pierre Marie Macquart

Pierre-Justin-Marie Macquart (8 April 1776 – 25 November 1855) was a French entomologist specialising in the study of Diptera.

Laboulbeniales

The Laboulbeniales is an order of Fungi within the class Laboulbeniomycetes.

Monophyly

In cladistics, a monophyletic group, or clade, is a group of organisms that consists of all the descendants of a common ancestor.

New World

The New World is one of the names used for the majority of Earth's Western Hemisphere, specifically the Americas (including nearby islands such as those of the Caribbean and Bermuda).

Nycteribiidae

Nycteribiidae of the true fly superfamily Hippoboscoidea are known as "bat flies", together with their close relatives the Streblidae.

Old World

The term "Old World" is used in the West to refer to Africa, Asia and Europe (Afro-Eurasia or the World Island), regarded collectively as the part of the world known to its population before contact with the Americas and Oceania (the "New World").

Parasitism

In evolutionary biology, parasitism is a relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.

Paul Gustav Eduard Speiser

Paul Gustav Eduard Speiser (1877–1945) was a German entomologist who specialised in Diptera.

Schizophora

The Schizophora are a section of true flies containing 78 families, which are collectively referred to as muscoids, although technically the term "muscoid" should be limited to flies in the superfamily Muscoidea; this is an example of informal, historical usage persisting in the vernacular.

Species

In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank, as well as a unit of biodiversity, but it has proven difficult to find a satisfactory definition.

New!!: Streblidae and Species · See more »

Subfamily

In biological classification, a subfamily (Latin: subfamilia, plural subfamiliae) is an auxiliary (intermediate) taxonomic rank, next below family but more inclusive than genus.

New!!: Streblidae and Subfamily · See more »

Taxonomic rank

In biological classification, taxonomic rank is the relative level of a group of organisms (a taxon) in a taxonomic hierarchy.

Trichobius

Trichobius is a genus of bat flies in the family Streblidae.
