"Big Nose" of Nature - the Lantern Fly

The Lantern Flies are widespread in the tropics but not very easily found, especially the larger and showier ones. They look like a cicada with a long nose and are generally more colourful. I have seen a few species where I usually go for my weekend excursions into the jungle and this is one occassion I was able to photograph one at a distance with my 90 mm macro lense...

Pyrops spp.
