Flies are a type of insect from the Diptera order (derived from the Greek word means two and ptera means wings). This fly I found in one of the forests located in Aceh. The most obvious difference between flies and other insect orders is that the fly has a pair of flying wings and a pair of halter, coming from the rear wing, on the metatorax (except for some fly species that can not fly). Flies of this type can be found anywhere. I photographed this fly using a lens macro.
