A banded fly resting on Acacia at the Centennary Lakes, Cairns. It looks like Tachinidae http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
Ha! I'm sure Cairns has as much fungi as here... maybe more. :)
Hey, I thought I was photographing an insect!I was hoping to avoid mycology in Cairns
Entomophthora muscae - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/102...
Yes it did seem rather bloated. I like your theory.
Been hit by the fungus I'd say. Bulging between tergites? and posture with wings opened up.
