Solution(By Examveda Team)

Pouch like antennae is found in Horse fly.
Horse-flies or horseflies are true flies in the family Tabanidae in the insect order Diptera. They are often large and agile in flight, and only the female horseflies bite animals, including humans, to obtain blood.
The terminal segment of the antennae is pointed and annulated, appearing to be made up of several tapering rings. No hairs or arista are arising from the antennae.
In the Pangoniinae, ocelli are present and the antennal flagellum (whip-like structure) usually has eight annuli or rings.
