Peacock attack!!!!
Posted: Sun Sep 23, 2007 1:49 pm
I have been rearing 6 Peacock larvae which have all turned into pupa's in the last few days. On inspection today, I noticed 2 casters and 1 Maggot in the container. The maggot was hanging from one of the pupa and the photo was taken just after it had fell off and detatched itself. The other photo shows the casters and maggot. What damage have these done and are they from a parasitic wasp/fly? There were no signs of these unwanted guests when the larvae went in!
