Acemyini is a small but cosmopolitan tribe of flies in the family Tachinidae.[1] Like all tachinid flies, acemyiines are parasitoids of other invertebrates. Specifically, the acemyiines are parasitoids of Orthoptera in the families Acrididae and Eumastacidae.[2]

Identification

The Acemyiini have a distinctive pattern of scutellar bristling among the Tachinidae, comprising three pairs of very strong setae; one pair of crossed apical setae, a diverging subapical pair set unusually far forwards, and a basal pair which may be approximately parallel or converging. Most species have a long series of proclinate orbital setae in both sexes. The basal node of vein R4+5 in acemyiines has one pair of very long setulae - one on each surface of the wing - which is uncommon in the Goniinae.[2]

gollark: Crucial's 1TB BX500, a well-known drive I've not-very-randomly picked, is rated for 360TB total writes.

gollark: So basically rewriting a tenth of the drive's capacity per day. They list this in the specs. As I said, it's generally more, and measured over 3-5 years generally.

gollark: 0.1 DWPD for a 1TB drive would be 100GB/day.

gollark: QLC is the lowest end regarding that, and most consumer stuff is on 3D TLC.

gollark: Generally more.
