This is one of the most amazing types of flies I have ever seen. Its size is not too large, but it has a sturdy, muscular, and aerodynamic body shape. This fly also has several colors on its body, including black and emerald green. It also has two large compound eyes that are emerald green, and that is the most striking part for me.

I managed to find this fly when it was perched on a branch of the mango tree in front of my house. It kept walking around the branch as if it were looking for something that had gone missing.Unlike fruit flies, which are often considered pests by many farmers, this fly is actually one of the best friends of many plants and flowers because they act as pollinators, helping with the reproduction of plants in our gardens.

However, a fly is still a fly. Even though it is not literally dangerous, we should not play around with it because this type of fly can also carry various kinds of diseases and bacteria. They also really like dirty places such as garbage bins or areas around drains and sewage.
