Javelin Wasp (Gasteruption jaculator)
Family: Carrot Wasp Family (Gasteruptiidae)
IUCN Conservation Status: Unassessed
What appears at first glance to be an intimidatingly large stinger protruding from the elongated abdomen of this unusual-looking species of wasp is actually an ovipositor, a tube-like egg-laying structure seen only in females. The great length of a female Javelin Wasp’s ovipositor is an adaptation that aids her in reaching into the burrows in which solitary bees and other species of solitary wasp lay their eggs alongside a supply of pollen to sustain their larvae upon hatching; after mating a female will stretch her ovipositor down through the entrance of her host’s burrow and lay her eggs on the eggs and young larvae within. Upon hatching the larval Javelin Wasps feed on both their host larvae and on the pollen stored for their benefit before pupating and emerging as fully mature winged adults shortly afterwards. Widely distributed across temperate grasslands and meadows throughout Asia and Europe, adults of this species live for only a few months between March and September and (despite their carnivorous start in life) are purely herbivorous, feeding mainly on the nectar of plants in the carrot family.

a young raccoon climbed up the balcony screen door of my apartment to knock down a wasps nest that I really didn’t want to deal with

I had a dream last night that I found a bush with caterpillars making cocoons in the leaves and there were some parasitoid wasps laying their eggs in the caterpillar cocoons and one time I fell in the bush and got stung by one of the wasps and it hurt like hell for like one minute before it was just a mild sore sensation. Basically my mind took a bunch of traits from different parasitoid wasps and put them together into my mind wasp. It was pretty cool

If wasps have 5,000,000 fans, I am one of them If wasps have only a 100 fans, I am still one of them If wasps have only 1 fan left, that is me If wasps have no more fans it is because I am no longer in this world my mother gave me my life, but wasps gave me a reason to live it
