Parasitic fly

The avian vampire fly (Philornis downsi) is a species of parasitic fly. Although adult avian vampire flies are vegetarian, their larvae survive by parasitising birds in the nest. The species was accidentally introduced to the Galápagos Islands, where it has become a major cause of breeding mortality in Darwin's finches.
