The larvae live inside the galls until they’re ready to pupate, but the galls are themselves targeted by the weevils Archarius salicivorus and A. crux, and the Tephritid fly Euphranta toxoneura.

new profile pic just dropped because i started a new job!!!!

i’m a postdoc fellow at the USDA-ARS facility in Hilo, HI. although i am finally not land-locked in indiana, my research focus will be shifting from marine species to tephritid fruit flies — i will be hitting the beach though

A tiny tephritid fly dancing its way through the latest heatwave. I think we're on the 5th heatwave of the summer at this point?

Was really impressed with the picture of a Medfly that the 5yo (×4+4) drew today. What an artist!
Would you be able to tell if I didn’t say?? #Medfly #Tephritid

This years goal is to find a cool Tephritid like this in England
A rarely recorded Tephritid (fruit) fly: 'Chetostoma curvinerve' also seen in my garden in 2023.

That’s such an amazing find - beautiful Tephritid. So cool that it was in your garden, never mind Brighton! Going to have to go tephritid garden searching now…

Couldn't resist a quick stop on @CityCorpHeath on the way home - the wildflowers are looking great, and lots of insects. Here a bug (Lygus cf pratensis), a weevil (Larinus planus, + tephritid), a hoverfly (Sphaerophoria taeniata) and a Meadow Grasshopper.

Good morning bright eyes.

Paracantha genera, a tephritid fruit fly. The larvae live inside sunflowers and adults hang around. From the Pollinator Garden just now.

The best I could get with iNaturalist is a tephritid fruit fly in the Paracantha genus.

Flies are so cool. Love the diversity of them.

Tephritid biologists need to stay in their lane.

Which is the correct lane. We are the ones driving in the wrong direction.
