  Termed 
  "flat-footed" 
  flies 
  because 
  in 
  the 
  males 
  the 
  posterior 
  tarsi 
  are 
  

   broad 
  and 
  much 
  flattened. 
  They 
  are 
  smaller 
  than, 
  but 
  resemble 
  a 
  house- 
  

   fly, 
  and 
  occur 
  in 
  swarms 
  near 
  water 
  courses, 
  though 
  locally. 
  The 
  larvae 
  

   live 
  in 
  mushrooms, 
  and 
  are 
  not 
  of 
  economic 
  importance.

  The 
  "big-eyed" 
  flies 
  of 
  Comstock, 
  so 
  called 
  because 
  of 
  their 
  relatively 
  

   enormous 
  head, 
  which 
  is 
  made 
  up 
  almost 
  entirely 
  of 
  eyes. 
  The 
  species 
  

   are 
  rare, 
  and 
  little 
  is 
  known 
  of 
  the 
  larvae, 
  save 
  that 
  they 
  are 
  parasitic 
  on 
  

   bugs.
