3 Interesting insect species
Hello insect lovers, I'm back with some insect findings that I found in the forest some time ago. There are several species of insects that I managed to capture photos of. But in this post I am more interested in sharing only three species of insects. Because in my opinion these three species are more beautiful and interesting.
The three insect species that I mean include Calliphoridae. Calliphoridae is a family of flies that are still in the Diptera order. The fly that I share is also known as the blue fly, according to its characteristics which have a blue color, but this fly is also equipped with a red color in its eyes which makes the fly look more attractive.
Even though flies are synonymous with dirty insects, the appearance of flies in macro form looks quite interesting, especially in the eye area. And you can see it in some of the photos below.
Then there is "bapak pucung", that is the popular name of this insect in Indonesia. This insect, whose Latin name is Dysdercus cingulatus, comes from the Pyrrhocoridae family. If you want to find this insect in the forest, you should look for wild Pulutan (Urena lobata) plants. Where there are these wild plants, there is also the Dysdercus cingulatus insect there.
And finally there is the beautiful Euchroea beetle. When I photographed this beetle I thought it was so tame, after a while I put this beetle on my finger the beetle finally chose to fly. Finally I can not get many photos. My feelings are between annoyed but also grateful even though he flew but I also managed to take pictures of him twice.

Catching flies is easy, but finding details like you share is difficult for me :)
You can even take better pictures than me :)
Thanks a lot dude, appreciate your compliment 🤗
The fly's eyes look very beautiful once
