Common Crane Flies (Genus Tipula)Observer
kupthegroveDescription
Claim: We found a Crane Fly.
We found this crane fly in a green shrub with pink and white flowers on the southwestern side of the building.
Three (3) long legs on either side of body and one (1) set of transparent wings. We eliminated the possibility that the Tipulidae (Crane Fly) was a dragonfly based on features of the wings (1 set instead of the 2 sets of a dragonfly).
Measuring approximately 1.3 cm from base of abdomen to top of head.
Other organisms found in environment include bees, spiders and snails.
