Conopidae Thickheaded flies. True flies (order Diptera) are an immense group with over 100, 000 known species. They all have their hind pair of wings reduced to pinshaped structures called halteres which act as gyroscopes to maintain balance in flight. Most feed on liquids, including nectar and blood.

Insects of Tasmania, Australia, focussing on Diptera (flies). The eight known Tasmanian conopid species belong in Conopinae, a subfamily whose larvae are solitary internal parasites of aceuleate Hymenoptera ie bees and stinging wasps. The first attempt to phylogenetically place Conopidae using molecular characters, as well as the largest molecular analysis of relationships within Schizophora (Diptera) to date, is presented.

The Conopidae contains some 800 described world species, which are usually found in dry areas among flowers where their main hosts (aculeate Hymenoptera) abound. There appear to be mimetic associations between certain conopids and wasps (Nicholson 1927). This mimicry probably has a Batesian function. However, because it allows close access to a dangerous host for the purpose of oviposition.
