Female hopper, eggs, nymphs and parasitizing wasp
Treehopper in the Membracidae family. The wasp is directly in front of the mum hopper. I watched this female swipe the wasp away with a foreleg when it got too close to her eggs.
Fly with entomopathogenic fungus
Cordyceps suspected, Ecuador. The twin spires are the fruiting body of this fungus which shrouds the fly.
Pygmy mole cricket (actually a grasshopper)
Insect order Orthoptera, family Ripipterygidae.
Female stalk eyed fly, Ecuador
Order: Diptera, I believe the family is Diopsidae
Female hopper with egg mass, Ecuador
Another member of the Membracidae family. She is guarding her eggs against parasitizing wasps and predators.
Pupa with water droplets, Ecuador
Pupa of undetermined species
Female hopper with nymphs. Ecuador
This hopper is in the huge Membracidae family. Her species may be Ennya chrysura. IDs on the many hopper variants are somewhat futile absent expert knowledge and/or dissection.
Caterpillar of cup moth (Limacodidae)
"Slug" caterpillar, Ecuador. Pinch or zoom to see her face.
