The Ordo of Lucilia Sericata

Taking a close look at him does not claim that he is very dirty and is hated by everyone, because his cool looks make me want to immortalize him through my smartphone. He looked dashing when he was on a small log sourced from wild plants that grew and thrived beside my window.

He is a species of insect called the Green Fly which is often discussed by experts about his daily activities, his body color is green and black and his calm stature is unexpectedly he likes dirty areas.

People say, he is one of those insects that is very annoying because his noisy voice always makes someone annoyed with him, even though he has been expelled from someone's territory many times but he still repeats his actions in the sense that he also comes and lands in a location that is not liked by humans.

This species is very easy to find everywhere, both in my area and in your area, it really likes to be in the garbage heap or on the body of any animal that has died.

Some regions call me the usual green bottle fly or some call it Lucilia sericata. As mentioned above, this fly can be found in most areas of the world, when compared to the common fly, the green bottle fly is the most popular species among researchers. So that experts describe it as follows.

The bottle fly is a part of Lucilia Sericata, its body is 10-14 millimeters (0.39-0.55 inches) a little bigger than the house fly and has a brilliant color, has black markings metallic, turquoise or gold

I think when looking at it, it has clear or transparent wings with light brown veins striped inside the wings, and it has black legs and antennae. When he is about to lay eggs, he will look for locations such as rotting vegetables or on any dead animal bodies, so that from the eggs the larvae will come out when it is time. In our area in Sumatra people use it or it can be used for maggot therapy, it is commonly used in forensic entomology, and can cause myiasis in livestock and domestic animals when observing a situation involving livestock or sometimes humans themselves.

If you look at his body in the photo, of course not disgusted because of his athletic posture, but when we look for the origin of events or his daily behavior, I myself will feel disgusted by seeing his puppies.

But regardless of the situation or his annoying attitude, I see it from another perspective, namely in the art of taking pictures, even though the uploaded image is less professional in targeting the target, but today I have succeeded in capturing it because taking pictures is sometimes very difficult because he never stands still when hungry however, when its stomach is full of the nutrients supplied by its activities it will perch anywhere in a remote location with other species only to rest long until its stomach is empty again.

Just for accurate information, based on the information I read on Wikipedia.com, one of the blogs written by one of the researchers named P. Yatigan hattaand from a fairly long explanation, I summarize that: from eggs will be born a figure or so-called L. sericata larvae. These larvae will only eat body tissue from the carcass itself or organic material, generally it will eat the body of the animal or animal carcass. If the mother fly knows that there is an animal carcass around the area, then the fly parent will enter the carcass from the inside, usually the mother fly will enter through a door such as the mouth of the carcass or the anus itself or will look for one of the cavities with a hole in the animal's body. That's why when the eggs turn into larvae, they will continue to eat parts of the body from the inside, and will be a place for them to hatch until they are ready to pupate and then emerge as tiny flies.

That's as a brief presentation of one insect that is often disliked by everyone, namely the Green Fly, I hope you like it. Thanks.
