5-and-a-half-acres:For @kearunningMy wife found a gall on a native skullcap and this popped out. Do you know what it is? Video to follow.Neat! This is a hoverfly (Family: Syrphidae). They don’t form galls, but they are predators of gall-forming aphids! I can’t ID this to species, but I’m pretty sure it’s from Genus Sphaerophoria. http://bugguide.net/node/view/7321/bgpage -- source link
