  1. My my, you've been busy, Ernst. Excellent job in not even missing the smallest insects and getting them identified. Much appreciated! Posted 7 years ago

''Trigonospila brevifacies'' is a species of true fly in the family Tachinidae native to eastern Australia. Like the vast majority of tachinid flies, ''T. brevifacies'' is a parasitoid of other insects, specifically late larval stages of a number of species of Lepidoptera. It is also known as the Australian Leaf-Roller Fly or Leafroller Fly.
