The little pomace-flies {Drosophila sp.), small, yellowish flies about one eighth of an inch long, are common about cider mills and wherever there is decaying fruit, in which their maggots develop. II. PUPIPARA This suborder includes three parasitic families, with but few species, so named on account of the peculiar mode of reproduction. The eggs and larvae are developed within the body of the female and are given birth when mature and all ready to pupate.
