2017 September 2 evening<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/strong><\/p>\n

   <\/strong>Scott Gilmore sends a picture of a soldier fly<\/strong> that he found in Upper Lantzville yesterday.  He writes:  It was identified as Exaireta spinigera<\/em><\/strong> by Katja Schulz on iNaturalist. It is an Australia native that has been in North American since 1985 and was first collected on this island in 2006. Some interesting reading on the species can be found here (Swann J.E., R.D. Kenner, R.A. Cannings, C.R. Copley (2006) Exaireta spinigera<\/em> (Diptera: Stratiomyidae): the first published North American records of an Australian soldier fly. J. Entomol. Soc. Brit. Columbia 103<\/strong>: 71-72)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

  This soldier fly was also featured on this site on 2016 November 10 – one was photographed on November 8 by Annie Pang in Gorge Park.<\/p>\n
