Flies head killers.
Killer fly species that lived in prehistoric times and now extinct found trapped in amber transparent. Male and female flies of the species named Burmapogon Bruckschi was discovered in the Valley Hukawang, Myanmar.

Fly killer trapped in a transparent stone.According to the researchers, the specimen measuring 2.5 inches and up to 100 million years old.
B. Bruckschi add more than 7,500 species of fly killers are now.
Flies that gets its name from the accuracy of their way to kill: after the ambush, fly killer ekoskeleton stab their prey and inject digestive juices so they could suck up the liquid that is in the body of the prey.
But the small predators were not immune to the resin. Insects can be trapped in the amber current flowing resin of trees where they perch.
Previously, the history of the new killer flies in the fossil limestone.
"Translucent amber stone gives researchers a new window to the ecology in the Cretaceous Period and enlightening about the evolutionary history of a family of flies," said Torsten Dikow, researchers at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History.
Wing fly killer trapped in a transparent stone."Fossils of ancient flies well preserved so that you can almost imagine they're flying now," he added.
T. Dikow identify differences B. Bruckschi with their relatives who are still alive. B. bruckschi has a flat antenna, the structure of the V-shaped eyes, spiny hind legs, and feathers cover the sharp mouth.
Species, along with other types of fly killer named Cretagaster raritanensis, described in the 21 April edition of the Journal of the American Museum Novitates.
