Description:
Description: English: Feather-legged Fly - Trichopoda pennipes, Julie Metz Wetlands, Woodbridge, Virginia. This is a member of the Tachinidae family. Many Tachinids are almost grotesquely hairy, but this Tachinid is simply beautiful. The adult female lays eggs on Squash Bug and Stink Bug larvae, so they are a useful biological control of Stink Bugs. HFDF!. Date: 17 August 2013, 13:49:14.
