It also has a massive head.
A new wasp in the Amazon is mildly terrifying Scientists have discovered a wasp in the Amazon rainforest with an enormous head that lays its eggs in unsuspecting insects – which then hatch and eat their way out. Named Capitojoppa amazonica, it is one of more than a hundred new species identified in Peru’s National Reserve of Allpahuayo-Mishana, famously one of the world’s most biodiverse regions. The large wasp, which is part of an entirely new genus, measures up to 1.7cm long.
The wasp uses an ovipositor to pierce the host and lay her egg Some Capitojoppa species have also been seen to feed on the hosts’ blood-like fluid – often without even laying an egg. The bright yellow wasp is also described as having an enlarged head, a large jaw and slightly unequal teeth. ‘The name Capitojoppa tells scientists a great deal about the characteristics of the newly discovered wasp genus,’ said Mr Claridge, from Utah State University.
