Description

Hoverfly Laying Eggs
Identified as Malometasternum rufocaudatum on Bowerbird by Ken Walker: "ID by Jeff Skevington who wrote: "Wow! Gorgeous photos! That is Malometasternum rufocaudatum. This is currently my most wanted genus for molecular work. Is there any chance that you collected it? We would dearly love to get one in 100% alcohol. You may actually find another as they tend to revisit the same oviposition sites.""
