- bee-fly-life-history
- Assertion
- The bee fly Heterostylum robustum parasitizes the alkali bee in the northwestern United States; it lays eggs near host nesting sites without distinguishing burrows from soil depressions, and the first-instar larva finds a host larval cell and waits until the host larva is full grown before feeding on it.
- Quote
