Sentences with ASILIDAE (2)

Although in the case of the majority of Diptera the body is more or less clothed with hair, the hairy covering is usually so short that to the unaided eye the insects appear almost bare; some forms, however, such as the bee-flies (_Bombylius_) and certain robber-flies (_Asilidae_) are conspicuously hairy.
