  • Portrait of a male spotted wing fruit fly. An introduced pest species in North America, the spotted wing fruit fly (Drosophila suzukii) feeds and breeds on fresh berries such as rasberries, strawberries and cherries – unlike most fruit flies that infest decaying and rotting fruit. Drosophila suzukii is a substantial pest for berry and fruit farmers. © Michael Durham / www.DurmPhoto.com

  • a female phorid fly (Pseudacteon obtusus)  flies above red imported fire ants (solenopsis invicta) searching for an ant to implant with an egg. She uses the stabbing part of her ovipositor to pierce the thorax and implant the egg. After the egg hatches the larvae migrates to the ant's head, and kills the insect. This type of fire ant is an invasive species imported from South America, and the phorid fly is being introduced to parts of Texas to help control the population of introduced fire ants.

  • A house centipede (Scutigera coleoptrata) on rotting wood. Western Washington. House centipedes feed on small insects, insect larvae, and on spiders. Thus they are beneficial, though most homeowners take a different point-of-view and consider them a nuisance. Technically, the house centipede could bite, but it is considered harmless to people.
