Intent Zale Moth (Zale intenta)Observer
johnmorganDescription
I know this is some type of crane fly on top of a Zale intenta, and to me it appears that the crane fly's proboscis is inside the moth's right forewing. I thought crane flies only ate nectar and pollen?

Genus IsochaetesObserver
mactadpoleDescription
This was observed falling from the canopy in a slow circular motion (about a 1 meter diameter circle). The two halves in the picture here connected together until it landed. We were told by a Waorani that it was a parasite, but don't think so.

Edit: reveal in the second image, prepare for a letdown.
