Insect victim...

This hymenopteran was found at WWT Penclacwydd yesterday (23/9) and it seems to have been truly impregnated by a fungus!

    Well spotted. I have very little info about these -- need to know insect genus and microscopy of conidiospores. There are some (on spiders)I have managed (as fewer of these!).

    Found an article which may be interesting and have put it in the Resources section " Fungi on Moths"
