Mosquito, Sabethes (Sabethes) tarsopus (Culicidae: Culicinae)

Tiputini Forest Reserve, Prov. Orellana, Ecuador

This pretty mosquito biting a colleague's lips is nearly invisible until it lands. In the air, it drifts about silently, shimmering brilliantly when sunlight reflects off its body and legs.
