Subfamily Sciapodinae

Latin Name Observation date Location
Subfamily Sciapodinae September 04 2026 Central Aceh Regency,Aceh, Indonesia

While I was cleaning the branches of the mango tree in front of my house, I suddenly managed to find a green long-legged fly that was resting on the leaves. This particular fly always manages to attract my attention because it has such extraordinary beauty. This fly has a relatively small body size, but its color looks very beautiful, namely metallic green, making it look shiny under the sunlight.
This particular fly is very wild and very sensitive to even the slightest movement, so it is not easy to approach it. This fly flew several times while I was photographing it, and I managed to take a photo of it when it landed on a mango leaf.

This particular fly is also a good friend to farmers, because adult flies can eat various types of small pests such as aphids, so we do not need to worry if we see this particular fly resting on our plants.

Okay everyone, now I will share some pictures of this green long-legged fly here.
