Aphidoletes Aphidimyza
$77.41
Aphidoletes aphidimyza, commonly referred to as the gal midge, is a midge whose larvae feed on over 70 aphid species. Adults are small, delicate, mosquito-like flies with long, dangling legs and long antennae. Their eggs are oval, minute ( 0.1 mm – 0.3 mm) and orange. Adult A. aphidimyza feed on honeydew, their larvae (which look like orange maggots) although tiny, feed and consume larger aphids. Depending on their food source, they are bright-orange to red.
Aphid colonies secrete a honeydew odor, attracting adult A. aphidimiza. They deposit their eggs in these colonies so the larvae have a direct food source once they hatch. The larva paralyzes the aphids and proceeds to feed on them.
