Most beautiful fly ever! This was around my passion flower vine. He moves quite fast so capturing a photo was not easy.

#AMomentinNature was noticing this tiny, iridescent blue fly on a forked bluecurls (Trichostema dichotomum) leaf. It's probably a Glossy Blue Fly (Condylostylus mundus).

Small, and excellent condylostylus fly, beneficial aphid-eater, and cute as an iridescent button, available in many shades from yellow through purple. 😻🖖🏼🤓

That’s a long legged fly- specifically Condylostylus occidentalis- and they’re actually beneficial because they eat aphids and mites.
The damage to your beans looks more like Japanese beetles or something similar.

Obligatory dolichopodid, presumed Condylostylus

Maybe Condylostylus. There are a lot of these on the jelly feeder during the day. I keep rescuing them out of the water in the ant moat above the feeder. The photo doesn’t do justice. They are very green and very shiny

How is one to learn anything about the #flies hanging out on my sunflower plants when this is the “information" at my disposal. Abysmal.

@flygirlnhm.bsky.social where else can @inaturalist.bsky.social draw from and/or how does @wikipedia.org get better?

Just look at these two. No common name, "Very Nice fly" seems fitting. Condylostylus caudatus in my garden. #bugsky
