Yellow Dung Fly134 viewsThis Dung Fly appears to have been a victim of Entomophthora muscae fungus, which, "once the fungus is inside the fly it grows into the brain, causing a change in behavior.
Instead of acting normally, the fly crawls as high as possible on the branch, flower, stem or leaf it is on, spreads out its legs, stretches opens its wings and angles the abdomen away from the surface. This position improves the chances of the fungal spores leaving the dead fly and infecting new hosts"
