Gall midge larva. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a larva of the gall midge (Feltiella acarisuga),which is also known as the gall gnat or gallfly. The larvae are ferocious carnivores that feed on spider mites (Tetranychus sp.),a common pest of vegetable crops and notably bean plants. As such the gall midge is used for biological pest control by organic farmers. Magnification: x32.5 at 6x7cm size | |
