What is a "scorpion fly"?

A scorpion fly is a small insect of the order Mecoptera, known for its distinctive scorpion-like tail and elongated mouthparts. They are typically found in forested areas and have a unique mating behavior where the male presents a prey item to the female as a courtship gift. Scorpion flies play a role in pollination and are primarily scavengers, feeding on dead insects and decaying organic matter. Despite their name and appearance, scorpion flies are harmless and do not possess a venomous sting.
