Abstract
In July, 1927, Dr Kenneth Smith took a specimen of the Hippoboscid fly Ornithomyia avicularia on the window of a building at the Cambridge University farm. The fly was lethargic and easily captured, and, noticing that its abdomen was infested by some parasite, the captor kindly handed me the specimen.Keywords
