p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · The flashy hoverfly


Hoverfly Xanthogramma pedissequum. The larvae of this hoverfly are found in black ant nests. I found this out the hard way when twice I spotted newly emerged adults on grass stems- sat down to photograph them and got bitten on the bum by ants.

Brian,

Nice work, especially the in-flight ones.

At times, we all suffer in the cause!

Thanks for the comments

Ron - after the second time I looked up if they had an association with ants
