Limonia triocellata is a species of limoniid crane fly in the family Limoniidae.[1][2][3][4] Three eye-like spots can be found on each of its wings, from which it derives its scientific name.[2] It can be found primarily in the eastern United States and Canada[5][6] especially during either of its two flight periods from May-June and September-October.[7]
