Visual Description
Based on observations from the TreeOfLife-200M dataset, Aleucosia tridentata exhibits the characteristic morphology of a bee fly (family Bombyliidae).[1] The specimens display a robust, somewhat hairy body typical of the family, with wings that are held in a characteristic position. The coloration includes patterns on the abdomen and thorax, and the eyes are prominent. Due to the nature of the photographic records, finer diagnostic structures such as specific wing venation or detailed setal arrangements are not consistently resolved.[1]
General Information
Aleucosia tridentata is a species of bee fly in the family Bombyliidae. It was described by David K. Yeates in 1991 as part of his revision of the Australian bee fly genus Aleucosia.[2]
