Hosts have been recorded for relatively few of the known species. However, several species, 

 in North America and elsewhere, have been reared from the puparia of Syrphidae, others from 

 the puparia of Tachinidae; and an African species has been recorded repeatedly from the pu- 

 paria of the tsetse fly, Glo.ssitia palpalis Rob.-Desv. A number of other species have been found 

 in the nests of ants where they presumably developed as parasites of myrmecophilous Diptera.
