The larvae of Megaselia scalaris (Diptera: Phoridae) exploit a broad spectrum of larval pabula. Consequently, the species features in a range of situations that affect the resources or well-being of humans. Furthermore, M. scalaris is readily cultured in the laboratory and is therefore favored as an experimental species for genetic, developmental, and bioassay studies. However, the extensive but widely scattered literature, reviewed herein, is frequently ignored by specialists, which gives rise to the unwitting repetition of previous work as well as insupportable proposals.

s蝇的自然历史，Megaselia scalaris。

鳞翅目（Megaselia scalaris）（Diptera：Phoridae）的幼虫利用了广泛的幼虫bul。因此，该物种在影响人类资源或福祉的一系列情况中具有特征。此外，scalaris scalaris易于在实验室中培养，因此作为遗传，发育和生物测定研究的实验物种而受到青睐。然而，本文中回顾的广泛但分散的文献经常被专家忽略，这导致了先前工作的无意重复以及无法支持的提议。
