Ubristes Jaguarinus
''Ubristes'' is a genus of hoverfly, hoverflies, with four known species. All are characterized by their metatibiae, which are usually enlarged, but always with a brush of long pile along the dorsal edges. These flies are probably mimics of the stingless bees in the tribe Meliponini. The presence or absence of the appendix on vein R4+5 is variable within this group. The type species of ''Carreramyia'', ''Hypselosyrphus'' and ''Stipomorpha'' were formerly included in ''Ubristes''; the latter two genera were also considered subgroups of ''Ubristes''. All three are now considered separate genera by Reemer & Ståhls (2013). Biology Larvae are found in ant nests. Distribution They are native to the Neotropical, Neotropics.

Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the Kingdom (biology), biological kingdom Animalia. With few exceptions, animals Heterotroph, consume organic material, Cellular respiration#Aerobic respiration, breathe oxygen, are Motility, able to move, can Sexual reproduction, reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of Cell (biology), cells, the blastula, during Embryogenesis, embryonic development. Over 1.5 million Extant taxon, living animal species have been Species description, described—of which around 1 million are Insecta, insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have Ecology, complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology. Most living animal species are in Bilateria, a clade whose members have a Symmetry in biology#Bilate ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
