Moved from Strongylogaster.

Question
You removed these from the cork, or these are other ones that were loose in the jar? And did these become the adults, or the adults emerged from the cork?

 
These 2 were not in the cork,
they were loose in the jar and died. The ones in the cork emerged as adults. I have an adult for you.
