According to the article 
http://home.ezezine.com/1636/1636-2011.06.07.17.05.archive.html : "In 
addition to viruses, the research revealed six species each of bacteria 
and fungi, four types of mites and a parasitic fly called a phorid, 
which had not been seen in honey bees outside California."

Does anyone have more information about this phorid fly?  I think I saw 
some in one of my hives (that are not doing well) a few weeks ago.
