“…Adult S. stercoraria , in contrast, are sit-and-wait predators of small insects, but they also imbibe nectar and fresh dung as energy sources (Cotterell 1920; Hammer 1941; Gibbons 1980a,b; Sasaki 1984). Adult flies are nutritionally anautogenous (or capital breeders) requiring protein and lipids from prey to become sexually mature producers of eggs and sperm (Foster 1967).…”

“…In the early part of the last century, the predatory S. stercoraria first attracted interest as a possible bio-control agent of pest flies affecting livestock ( Cotterell 1920 ). During the past 40 years, this fly has been the subject of numerous studies on mating behavior and sperm competition ( Parker 1970a , b , c , 1978 ), post-copulatory sexual selection and sexual conflict ( Ward 2000 ; Hosken et al 2001 ), reproductive physiology ( Hosken and Ward 1999 ; Reim et al 2006 ), foraging ( Blanckenhorn and Viele 1999 ), life history evolution ( Blanckenhorn 1998a , b ; Teuschl et al 2007 ), thermal biology ( Blanckenhorn and Llaurens 2005 ), developmental stability and fluctuating asymmetry ( Strong and James 1992 ; Swaddle 1997 ; Hosken et al 2000 ; Webb et al 2007 , Floate and Coghlin 2010 ), phylogenetics ( Bernasconi et al 2001 ), quantitative genetics ( Blanckenhorn 2002 ), and population genetics ( Kraushaar et al 2002 ).…”

“…S. stercoraria is widespread and typically seen on the dung of large mammals, especially on cattle dung (Blanckenhorn, 1998). S. stercoraria attracted early attention as a possible biocontrol agent (Cotterell, 1920).…”

“…Nutriment was secured from the head by piercing it in the oral region, and also from the abdomen by making an incision between the sclerotized plates. Cotterell (1920) states that the contents of the thorax are also obtained by making incisions at the base of the coxae.…”
