Good evening, I just spotted this tiny fly on my image of some sort of Sarcopaga. Any ideas? And do you know if it's there by coincidence or that ther's some sort of relationship? Thanks, Andr Edited by Andre Jas on 27-10-2006 22:59 |

It is a chalcidoid wasp...

And to be more specific: it's looks like a chalcidoid from the family Eulophidae! And it must be a coincidence with the fly, these wasps are parasites of small larvae and pupae. Greetings, Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

And the Sarcophaga is actually a muscid - Polietes lardarius male (the hairy eyes are a big clue - I don't think any Sarcophagidae have hairy eyes, and also there's no bend in vein M)

Thank you all for your contributions! Odd though I googled Polietes lardarius, and found out there are hardly any images to be found. Strange, because I think it's a beautifull fly. Andr Edited by Andre Jas on 03-10-2006 21:55 |
