Calycadenia truncata. My second rosin weed, but much, much different than C. multiglandulosa. This one is tall, super sticky and smelly, and its tar/resin is yellow.
Schlumbergera truncata (Echter Weihnachtskaktus) Cactaceae
A regular heleomyzid visitor to my backyard this winter. An Austroleria species - only two described, and both rather similar. A. extensa is descriped as haveing a broad, somewhat ill-defined, dark median stripe on it's back (Kristi's Austroleria seems best to fit this), whereas A. truncata has this stripe very narrow and well defined. This genus is very similar to Diplogeomyza in many aspects (see Mark's pic) however the former has three dorsocentral bristle pairs, the latter has four with an extra pair closer to the head.
A. extensa has been reared from a Boletus fungus. The flies here were photographed on different days in the past month. All found among very wet decaying leaf debris, and all within a very short distance to a particular cat dung - though not on the dung. Bodylengths usually around 4 to 5mm.

Schlumbergera truncata.
Abused, neglected, left out through the winters, overwatered, underwatered, trampled and pooped on by pigeons (they even nibble and break off the leaves) yet still it fights back.
The flowers close up every evening as seen above then open wide the following day when the sun shines on them.
Shame about the colour cast, it was evening and I used bounce flash. Either side of the plant are red velvet curtains (drapes ) which rather added to the hue.

I LOVE this pitcher with the wings and how big it is. I'm guessing 3 inches. my biggest truncata yet.
