Family Asilidae
I saw this little insect that resembled a small Robber Fly sitting on a leaf in the desert near Lytle Ranch in
Southern Utah. I have to admit I've never seen one this small before. When I got a chance to look at the
picture on my computer, low and behold, the robber fly was eating something even smaller - a minuscule
parasitic wasp (according to Bugguide.net). Cool! © Carol Davis, 5-26-2011
