Caption:
This image depicted a dorsal view of a female deer fly, Chrysops lateralis, which had been collected at White Pond, in Sudbury, Massachusetts on July 3, 2013. This particular specimen had been feeding on both human beings and canines, who had been occupying a clearing at the edge of a pond. C. lateralis is a typical deer fly, in that it is small and yellow with dark coloration, on otherwise clear wings. The thorax is striped, and the abdomen is yellow with black bands.
