On 2026-08-15 I found a clutch of ova from Dasyhelea in an insect font in my garden and during the metamorphosis could take photos of larvae, pupae, and imagines with exuviae. Are these Dasyhelea flavifrons? (Several times the larvae aggregated when they emerged to pupae. Is this common?) 1. sclerotised female eklans attached the following image: ![]() [83.45Kb] Edited by eklans on 13-09-2026 15:27 |
