Species with mouth parts that appear to be 'similar', like Sargus, do feed on honeydew. I have never seen Hermetia in nature...
Marcello 18 September 2015 16:42:07
Thanks Paul, some sites report that it don't have functional mouth part, other sites say it feed nectar, some publications say it "probably" feed nectar and it's a pollinator.
Paul Beuk 18 September 2015 10:57:02
Sounds like it might be. Do sites that 'say not' state that they do feed or don't they mention anything?
Marcello 14 September 2015 19:42:04
Question: is it true that the Hermetia illucens don't have functional mouth part? Some sites say yes and some other say not. It's a bit confused. Thanks Smile

Thanks Bums I am thinking shifting markings- this surely must be the word for it!

@oceanlis2000: schillerflecken could mean something like sparkling/brilliant markings..imo
