| Caryomyia tuberculata | February 04 2025 | Buket Alue Puteh, Aceh, Indonesia |
While walking in the forest about two days ago I found something very strange and unique behind the leaves of the weeds, actually I found them accidentally, so when I was in the forest there was a wild plant that really attracted my attention because of its unique leaf shape and even resembled flower plants cultivated by our community, so I was curious about this plant and tried to examine the leaves, so accidentally when turning over the leaves I found something attached with a bright yellow color.
I thought that what I had just found was a species of fungus, but my brain refused to believe that it was a fungus because it was impossible for fungus to grow on fresh leaves like that, so I observed it carefully and finally I concluded that this was a living creature that might belong to the pupa or even egg of the species, so tonight after doing a search and uploading it on inaturalist and I found the appropriate image, it is Caryomyia tuberculata.
so for this post I can't write a scientific explanation for all of you because this species is still foreign to me and of course I really lack information, if you have specific information please let me know and it will be very useful to straighten out my knowledge about the species, even though this creature is still foreign, it is really very interesting, especially its bright yellow color, its elegant shape and the place where they are very hidden.
My findings this time show that there are still many wonders hidden in the wilderness and are waiting for us to be discovered. I am very sure that there are many unique, beautiful and even hidden species in the wild and are still far from human sight, so thanks to these findings it makes me even more enthusiastic to explore the forests around me and hopefully I can reveal various species to all of you.
