These TO THE STUDY OF ENTOMOLOGY. 109 insects are very peculiar creatures, living as they do upon the blood ofvarious animals. The larvae feed upon vegetable and other can be killed by the use of flea-powder or pyrethrum. A washmade by diluting the kerosene emulsion will also kill these insects ifused upon cats and dogs. Lastly, we come to a very peculiar group of insects called the Pupipara,that is included among the Diptera. These insects are parasitic in theirhabits and are peculiar on account of their larvae being retained within
