The Lives of Flies
The subtitle of Jonathan Balcombeâs new book, âSuper Fly: The Unexpected Lives of the Worldâs Most Successful Insectsâ leads to the first question on this weekâs podcast. Why âsuccessfulâ?âTheir diversity, for one,â Balcombe says. âThereâs over 160,000 described species â and itâs important to add that qualifier, âdescribed,â because itâs estimated there may be about five times that many that are undescribed. Insects make up 80 percent of all animal species on the planet, so that says something right there about how incredibly successful they are, and flies are arguably the most species-rich subset of insects. Itâs estimate...

For this "In Tune to Nature" show, host Carrie Freeman asks Dr. Balcombe to focus on the vital role of flies as pollinators of flowers and food crops (including chocolate!), and as waste disposers, composters, and recyclers (they literally clean up everyone's sh*t) so t...
