Did You Know About Flies.

Flies are insects from the order Diptera suborder Cyclorrapha. Morphologically indistinguishable from mosquito flies (suborder Nematocera) based on the size of the antenna; short aperture flies, mosquitoes while the aperture length.
Flies generally have a pair of wings and a pair of original small wing used to maintain stability during flight. Flies often live among humans and some types can cause serious illness. Fly called a very serious disease spreader for every fly alighted somewhere, approximately 125,000 germs that fall into these places.
Flies rely heavily on vision for survival. Fly's compound eye is composed of thousands of lenses and are very sensitive to movement. Some types of flies have an accurate three-dimensional vision. Several other types of flies, for example Ormia ochracea, have very advanced hearing organs.

Order Diptera.

The presence of one pair of patent, metathoracic wings distinguishes flies from other insects, such as mayflies, dragonflies, damselflies, stoneflies, whiteflies, fireflies, alderflies, dobsonflies, snakeflies, sawflies, caddisflies, butterflies or scorpionflies. However, some flies have a secondary wing, for example, many members of the superfamily Hippoboscoidea and several species of social insect colonies inquilines on.
Comprising an estimated 240,000 species of flies mosquitoes, gnats, midges and others. flies have a very important role both in terms of ecological and human (medical and economic). Flies, especially mosquitoes (Culicidae), are very important as spreaders of disease, acting as vectors for malaria, dengue fever, West Nile virus, yellow fever, encephalitis and other infectious diseases.

Anatomy and biology.

Diverticulae covering large intestine, allowing the insect to store small amounts of fluids after eating.

Reproduction and development.

Female genital flies rotated to some degree from the position found in other insects. In some flies, this is a temporary rotation during mating, but in others, it is a permanent organ of torque that occurs during pupal stage. This torque can cause the anus which is located below the genitals, or, in the case of 360 ° torsion, to the sperm duct wrapped around the gut, despite the external organs being in their usual position. When flies mate, the male initially flies on top of women, facing the same direction, but then turned around to face the opposite direction. This forces the male to lie on his back to keep his genitals stuck in the female genital flies, or torsion of the male genitals allows the male to mate while remaining upright. This leads to flies having more reproduction abilities than most insects, and at a much faster rate. Flies occur in great populations due to their ability to mate effectively and in a short time during the breeding season.
Females lay their eggs close to the food source (such as the nearly ripe fruit), allowing the larvae to consume as much food as possible in a short period of time before it turns into an adult. The eggs hatch soon after laid, or the flies are ovoviviparous, with the larvae hatching inside the mother.
Fly larvae do not have a right foot. Some Dipteran larvae, such as species of Simuliidae, Tabanidae, and Vermileonidae, have prolegs adapted to function as holding onto a substrate in flowing water, holding the host tissues, or holding prey Roughly., There are some anatomical differences between the larvae of the Nematocera and the Brachycera (see Classification section, below), especially in the Brachycera there is little demarcation between the chest and abdomen, though the demarcation may be very visible in many Nematocera, such as mosquitoes (see image, both here and in the mosquitoes article), in the Brachycera, the head of the larva is not clearly distinguished from other body parts, and there is little, if any, sclerites. Informally, such Brachyceran larvae called maggots, but the term is often used nontechnical and indifferent to fly larvae or insect larvae in general. Eyes and antennae Brachyceran larvae are reduced or absent, and the abdomen also lacks appendages such as Cerci. The lack of features is an adaptation to food such as carrion, decaying detritus, or host tissues surrounding endoparasites Nematoceran larvae generally have visible eyes and antennae, though usually small and of limited function ..
The pupae have various forms, and in some cases develop inside a silk cocoon. After emerging from the pupa, the adult fly rarely lives more than a few days, and serves mainly to reproduce and to disperse the search for new food sources.

FACTS ABOUT THE FLY

Smell flies can reach a distance of 2 Km. building means you become a potential attack flies with a distance of 16 Km.
1 flies can carry 200 different types of bacteria.
If a fly to save the bacteria on the egg pudding, at the end of 24 hours the baketri it will develop into 280,000,000,000,000, which is more than enough bacteria to cause food poisoning
If eating flies, flies regurgitate an enzyme called volidrop, together with his intestines to soften the food.
For every fly that looks estimated there are 19 flies again invisible.
When a fly landed on food, flies transmit dangerous diseases such as poisoning, typhoid, hepatitis (liver damage) etc..
You'll never know if you have food or drink infestation by flies, because that flies into danger must be aware

Male and Female Adult flies.

Female flies are usually larger and can extend the tip of the abdomen to form the ovipositor used to lay eggs. Sometimes the male flies have enlarged eyes that meet above the head.

Growth flies.

Flies are holometabolous, therefore they have four distinct morphological stages; eggs, larvae (maggots), pupa and adult. After hatching from eggs, larvae molt twice as they grow. Molting maggots difficult to see. Larvae are maggots without legs with soft body, and looks like a powder keg.

Food

Larvae feed on rotting flesh and excrement. Adult flies eating sweets in any form, including nectar (honey glands on the plant) and fruit rot.

Habitat

Flies live in garbage and animal feces wherever available. Dead animals attract flies within a few hours after death. Most flies are diurnal (active during the day)

Predators

Many birds, bats, spiders, and insects such as dragonflies eat adult flies. Predatory and parasitic insects eat the larvae.

Interesting behavior.

- Eye flies are the most complex in the insect world. each piece represents a separate unit detects light. Light reflected from the eye to form a rainbow fly.
- Flies smell, using feathers that cover their bodies. The feathers on the parts of the mouth and feet of flies are used to sample the food. Flies taste what they find to walking on makananya. If they run into something tasty, they will put their mouths and taste it again.
- Flies to use her hair to tell them when they touch something. These hairs will bend when touched.
- Eye flies do not have eyelids, so flies rub their eyes with their feet to keep them clean.
- A fly cleans itself constantly.
- Flies walk on smooth surfaces using a soft sticky pads that act like glue. This allows them to walk on vertical glass surfaces and upside down.

Impact on Ecosystems

Positive

Flies and other insects, is very important in consuming and eliminating animal corpses. Flies are also important in the conversion of dirt and rotting vegetation to the ground. Flies become prey to other animals. Some flies also help in pollination.

Negative

Because of their habits are interested in dirt and rotting flesh, flies can also transmit diseases such as dysentery, typhoid fever, and cholera.
Another fact, one of the wings of flies containing the seeds of disease, while the other wing contains the antidote. So, thank you for reading this article.
