In the absence of other prey, the yellow dung fly will turn to cannibalism.

Yellow dung flies have extremely variable phenotypes, body size and development rate in particular.

Consider, for example, the mating copulation duration of the yellow dung fly.

Yellow dung fly viability depends strongly on the environment.

Larger yellow dung flies have a competitive advantage.

Initial interest in yellow dung flies came from their potential as bio-control agents against pest-flies around livestock.

To test a chemical's toxicity, the chemical is mixed with bovine faeces, to which yellow dung fly eggs are added.

Countless studies have looked at the many manifestations of sexual conflict, including postmating sexual selection, in the yellow dung fly.

Yellow dung flies are anautogenous.

In some cases, such as in the yellow dung fly, certain male traits will affect the fitness of eggs laid in particular environmental conditions.

Yellow dung flies develop in extremely variable environments, with pat drying, dung availability, and larvae competition hindering survival.

Like Drosophila melanogaster, the yellow dung fly is an ideal model organism due to its short life span and susceptibility to various experimental manipulations.

In the yellow dung fly Scathophaga stercoraria, females can be injured in the battles between males suitors.

Additionally, there is low genetic differentiation between yellow dung fly populations, likely due to extensive gene flow, as S. stercoraria are able to travel great distances.

The resulting dung contains drug residues that can have unintentional adverse effects on yellow dung fly populations, such as increased mutations and decreased offspring viability.

Yellow dung flies are a key part of decomposing waste in pastures which is key to preventing the spread of endoparasites and returning nutrients to the soil.

Much phenotypic plasticity in yellow dung flies is a result of food(dung) availability in the larval stage, which is often mediated by conspecific competition.

Scathophaga stercoraria, commonly known as the yellow dung fly or the golden dung fly, is one of the most familiar and abundant flies in many parts of the northern hemisphere.

His Ph.D. was on The reproductive behaviour and the nature of sexual selection in Scatophaga stercoraria L. (yellow dung fly), and provided a detailed quantitative test of Darwin's theory of sexual selection, and an early application of optimality theory in biology.
