Description


The different species of Eristalis are very difficult to distinguish, but Eristalis tenax is one of the commonest of these honeybee mimics. Why is it also called rat-tailed maggot fly ? Have a look HERE… Thank you very much for your comments on my previous upload : thumb_1492379.jpg " Congratulations Shari ! "
