Hi everyone, I have created a new page for the Iris leaf miners that was a recent topic in this forum. Jan Agoston contributed the images on these flies. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… The weather was warm one weekend this May so I spent a good amount of time in the garden which is mostly a collection of miscellaneous geophytes in pots. In only a couple of hours during the warmest part of the day, I caught 4 Narcissus bulb flies! Imagine my shock to find so many flies buzzing around, trying to lay eggs. The worst part is that there are probably many more buzzing around while I'm not around. But at least I caught 4 that day (plus one from another day) so have prevented 500 potential eggs from being laid. I decided to mount these specimens up and took photographs of them for the wiki. You can see the photos in the already established wiki page for this insect pest. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… Nhu Berkeley, CA where only the native species are still in bloom. ---- http://www.flickr.com/photos/xerantheum/
