Spot-Wing Alignment - _TNY_1033

Look at how the red patches on the abdomen of this Eriothrix rufomaculatus fly almost perfectly match the edges of the wings. Pretty neat!

 

This is a tachinid fly and they parasitise on moths in that the fly's larva develop inside the subterranean larvae of, crambid, lappet, ermine and tiger moths.
