Mallota bautias - bee-mimic flower fly
Everything is not as it seems. This is not a bee, although he's got a pretty good disguise, don't you
think? He's even got big hairy back legs. But he's short a pair of wings and what's up with the
funny face and silly little antennae? After a childhood spent feeding on damp muck, this
handsome hoverfly will live out the rest of his life gloriously visiting flowers and
pretending to be a bee.
