Scorpionfly - a photo on Flickriver

Scorpionfly

            Panorpa communis

Sony ILCE-6000
FE 90mm F2.8 Macro G OSS

The common scorpionfly has a black and yellow body, with a reddish head and tail. The male has a pair of claspers at the end of its tail (for holding the female during mating), giving it a scorpion-like appearance, although it is not a stinger. The adult insect has a wingspan of about 35 millimetres (1.4 in), with wings that are mostly clear, but have many dark spots or patches. Its head, mounted with large eyes, is drawn into a prominent, downward pointing beak, which opens at the tip of its head. The larva resembles a caterpillar and grows up to 20 millimetres (0.79 in) long. It has three pairs of thoraxic legs and eight pairs of prolegs.
