Assassin bug instar
Référence de la vidéo 11932292
| The bright colors of the newly molted white-eyed assassin bug (Platymeris biguttata) on the left will darken in a few hours, but the two white 'eye' spots on its wings, and for which this species is named, will remain. Molting is a process during which insects shed their outer skin in order to grow in size. This specimen's recently shed exoskeleton can be seen at the above right. Assassin bugs get their name from the way they stalk their prey and have one of the fastest strikes in the insect world. They use their sharp beak-like mouthpart to stab their victims and to inject a paralyzing venom. The white-eyed species is indigenous to West Africa and typically reach a length of 2 1 2 centimetres. | |
