Not Laboulbeniales - either young mites, or possibly the fly's eggs which have burst out of this female's abdomen

Hi Tony, this is a slide preparate of the structure. It looks fungal to me. But do you know the fly? Ralph Sipple attached the following image:  [34.77Kb] Edited by Ralph Sipple on 16-06-2009 07:53 Ralph |

It certainly looks like a fungus, but not one I recognise!

One thing is sure, these are not Laboulbeniales fungi. You can always send them to our lab for further study, if interested in an identification. One can contact me at dhaelewaters[at]fas.harvard.edu. Danny Tony Irwin wrote:
