title: Notes on the biology of Orthopodomyia in Illinois.
abstract: The principal habitats of immature Orthopodomyia alba and Orthopodomyia signifera are tree holes, though they are occasionally encountered in artificial containers. We collected 929 Or. alba and 17 Or. signifera from 2 plastic trash cans, 2 scrap tires, and a tree hole. All collections were made in an urban residential area in central Illinois.
