Figure 5. Sepsid flies following salticids in Karnataka. 1-2, 4-5, Sepsid fly following an adult male Myrmarachne sp. 3, Detail of sepsid fly shown in (4). Note the rounded head. 5-7, Sequence showing approach and entry into the shelter of an adult female Telamonia dimidiata (Simon 1899) by a sepsid fly. Perhaps because of either their ant-like appearance or their chemical defense, sepsids may not be taken as prey by these salticids.
