Macrophotography - Insect killer

in #macro7 years ago

During photographing insects, I am very interested in this type of fly, asylidae english robber flies orulalat killer, this insect including family diptera (di = two, ptera = wings). the killer flies that I meet are medium size for insect size, slim and hairy with a length of 3-5cm, humpbacks, spiked feet, two large eyes, has a fairly heavy bulu2 on the head, six feet, two long hind legs and four the front foot is shorter than the hind leg which is useful for catching prey and there is a short antenna.

robber flies are other predator serannga, such as butterflies, bees, dragonflies, spiders, grasshoppers, etc. in search of this insect feed will perched on the branches / stems of weeds to observe the insect prey and with the vision of a very good predator, this powerful predator can estimate the distance and speed of moving objects in his observations. robber flies attack their prey's insects in the air, with tools like the sting needle in the head piercing its prey and injecting saliva containing toxins and enzymes that serve to paralyze and digest its prey. the predator then sucks the insides of his prey.
