Conopidae

/kəˈnɑːpɪˌdeɪ/ noun

Definition

A family of small parasitic flies that lay their eggs in or on the bodies of bees, beetles, and other insects.

Etymology

From Greek 'konops' (gnat) plus the family suffix '-idae' (zoological designation for family). This scientific name follows Linnaean taxonomic naming conventions.

Kelly Says

Conopidae is one of those insect families that sounds like science fiction—these flies have evolved incredibly precise hunting behaviors, tracking airborne bees and landing on them mid-flight with surgical precision. They're masters of aerial combat!
