Diptera are be divided into two suborders, the Nematocera, and the Brachycera. These two suborders can be distinguished morphologically by wing veination and antennal type in the adult forms, and by ecological habitats.

Biosystematic Database of World Diptera - English
URL: http://www.sel.barc.usda.gov/Diptera/biosys.htm

The BioSystematic Databases of World Diptera (BDWD) is a source of names and information about those names and the taxa to which they apply. The BDWD is a set of tools to aid users in finding information about flies. The two main components of the BDWD are the Nomenclator and the Species database and internet portal. The BioSystematic Database of World Diptera (BDWD) provides a comprehensive portal to knowledge about these dipterans as well as a framework to organize and integrate current and future data, information and knowledge. The linnaean system of names provides unique information keys within a hierarchical framework which can map our knowledge of life from a historical (phylogenetic) perspective.

Stiletto Flies: Therevidae - English
URL: http://www.inhs.uiuc.edu/cee/therevid/stiletto_fly.html

Worldwide, the family Therevidae (Insecta: Diptera: Asiloidea) is poorly known and among the least understood of the flies (Order Diptera). Diptera are among the poorest known of the larger insect orders. Yet, this fascinating, medium-sized (>3,000 spp.) family of flies is critical to the sound functioning of arid and semiarid environments, including agroecosystems and forests in those zones. Individuals of this family are infrequently collected because the adults are usually secretive, frequenting habitats rarely sampled by collectors.

Intertidal flies of the genus Aphrostylus - English
URL: http://www.ex.ac.uk/~cnfrench/ics/cbru/diptera/flies.htm

shown in filters: Publikationen

Cornish Biological Records Unit. Dolichopodids are small,often metallic, bristly flies found largely in damp habitats. They feed on soft-bodied organisms from which the body fluids are extracted by crushing and masticating the prey with labella at the apex of the proboscis. The larvae inhabit a range of wet substrates including mud, soil and rotting wood, and like the adults are carnivorous except for a few species which are phytophagous, developing in the stems of plants. The pupal stage is spent in a cocoon constructed by the final larval instar from detritus held together by a secretion of the labial glands. Respiration is aided by respiratory horns projecting through the wall of the cocoon.
