One more Asilidae that I would like help to identify. Could be another Eraxasilus female? Also will be welcome any information about these red parasitic mites that attack both insects.  Coordinates of the place where I took this photo: Latitude: -22.538303987851, Longitude: -43.228594064713 Date and time: March 20, 2012 at 10.26am GMT+3 Thanks for help!

Eraxasilus sp. female. I don't know much about the mites; most red ones like these are probably parasitic larvae of superfamily Trombidioidea--common on insects. Cheers, Eric. |
