The black horsefly is about one inch (2.5 cm) long. It has a broad head, brownish-black wings, and a beaklike mouth. The mouth is adapted to feeding on liquid—the female feeds on blood, the male on nectar. To draw blood from a victim, the female pierces the skin with her mouth, often inflicting a painful wound.
