Junk Bug
Posted By: bluestringer, 10-12-2015, 12:11 PM

The junk bug or trash bug looks like a small pile of debris, but look closely and you see the pinchers coming out the front. It's the larva stage of the lacewing fly.


Shot with K10 and Vivitar 55mm Macro, Sunpak ring flash.

Very interesting! I would never have guessed that was an insect!

Nice capture!

I was fortunate enough to get a couple photos of these guys eating some sort of mite and an aphid this year.

Interesting. I see adult lacewings a lot, they're among my favorites. I don't recall ever seeing a larva, this could be why...
