Two Black flies - Agapophytus asprolepidotos
Description:
I couldn't resist stopping to look at these flies wrestling in a web.I think they were both male flies protecting their territory. At full size you can see that the top fly has white spots on its thorax. You may have to download the full size photo to see it. ~10mmPhotos: Jean
