Some of the egg-masses were attached to the lower surface of the substrate, and as the fly puparia are only loosely attached to the substrate, it is possible that some of them fell down before collection. Additionally, egg-masses revealed saprophagous invertebrates such as Acari and Psocoptera (Insecta), which may have destroyed part of the material. Thus the numbers provided above may be underestimates.
