Flieswhats this bug?
Hi,
My husband and I live in central Florida. We have a few hot pepper plants, a couple days ago we noticed this little guy sitting on a leaf. Can you tell us what it is? Thanks a bunch,
Kim
Hi Kim,
That fly will probably be sitting there for a long time. It has been consumed by fungus. We turned to Eric Eaton for a fly identification. Here is his response: “The fly is a longlegged fly, family Dolichopodidae, probably a Condylostylus. Eric”
