Grasshoppers, Crickets & Flower Flies

PSX_20230302_203224.jpg

On this occasion I again want to share some macro photography shots with insect objects. Some of the photos of insect species that I share are some photos of insects that I found in several different locations and times.

In the first photo is the genus of grasshopper with the Latin name Phlaeoba from the Acrididae family. This locust is widespread in the Asian region, especially in Southeast Asia such as Malaysia and Indonesia. Like grasshoppers in general, these grasshoppers can be found in areas of fresh grass, especially on the outskirts of rice fields.

Then still in the bush location, besides being able to find grasshoppers there you can also find sickle-bearing bush-cricket or Phaneroptera falcata.

Then there is also another species of bush cricket, and that seems to belong to the Tettigoniidae family. This cricket has a more attractive color than the cricket above, which is predominantly green. This cricket actually has a more interesting color mixture.

The characteristic of this cricket is that it has a dark yellow color on the legs and has a black body, as well as both antique eyes. As well as the two antennas with a combination of black and dark yellow.

And finally is the flower fly species, these flies are not like flies in general that like dirt or swarm stale food. Instead, flower flies prefer the nectar found in wild flowers in the forest. And here are some photos:

I really like the pictures you show, they look amazing!

What an interesting fly indeed, it acts a bit like a bee, how strange. Cheers :)

Flower fly species are almost like bees, they don't look for excrement. But fighting over nectar with bees and butterflies. Thank you @russellab17 :)
