| 説明 | This type of Robber Fly is called a Hanging Thief because of its habit of hanging from vegetation with its forelegs, while holding prey with its other two sets of legs. Previous to this, it has captured the prey in the air by stabbing it with its proboscis. Also from its proboscis, it injects digestive juices which liquefies the insides of the prey. Still using the proboscis, it sucks the juices out. Happy Fly Day Friday! |
