        A Diarrhegma modestum, a species of tephritid or fruit fly, is seen perched on a weed leaf in the forest at Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on October 23, 2024. This species, known as a notorious insect pest of vegetables and fruits, is found across South and Southeast Asia, including India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
