Flies are among the most ecologically varied of all insects, and some—such as the stalk-eyed flies (family Diopsidae), figured here among their relatives—are textbook examples of exaggerated male ornamentation resulting from preferences of females during mate selection. From Westwood, Cabinet of Oriental Entomology.

A range of flies (order Diptera) from E. F. Staveley’s British Insects (1871): from top, house mosquito (Culex pipiens), soldier fly (Stratiomys chameleon), another soldier fly (Sargus cuprarius), marsh horse fly (Tabanus autumnalis), hornet robber fly (Asilus crabroniformis), and down-looker snipe fly (Rhagio scolopaceus).
