Stilt-legged Fly with phoretic pseudoscorpion
Found at Ecolodge Itororó reserve, in/near Nova Friburgo municipality in state of Rio de Janeiro in southeastern Brazil.
It has a pseudoscorpion riding under its abdomen. In this photo you can partially see it in the window formed by the right mid and hind femora (I added note showing where).
Single exposure, uncropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
