ribesii |
||
| This Syrphus ribesii, was photographed at Eakring Flash on May 4th 2006 and is one of many hoverflies which exhibit wasp mimicry, through their yellow/black colouration and markings. They are quite commonly seen, but can be hard to detect later in the year amongst the vast numbers of the similar looking Episyrphus balteatus. | ||
