Fungus Gnat - Neoempheria Karnack, Harrison County, Texas, USA October 18, 2019 Size: 6mm
Two unknown polypore fungus conks were collected from a fallen branch the evening of 10/14. At the time there were four unknown larvae and one Metalectra species larva actively feeding on them, the latter being the intended reason for the collection. Four days later a fungus gnat emerged. Photo is off the spent pupal case.
