Panda Ant

The Mutillidae are a family of more than 3,000 species of wasps (despite the names) whose wingless females resemble large, hairy ants. Their common name velvet ant refers to their dense pile of hair which most often is bright scarlet or orange, but may also be black, white, silver, or gold. Black and white specimens are sometimes known as panda ants due to their hair coloration resembling that of the Chinese giant panda. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutillidae Weird Insects, Cool Insects, Bees And Wasps, Cool Bugs, Pink Dolphin, Star Dust, Akhal Teke, Beautiful Bugs, Creepy Crawlies

These unusual animals illustrate that nature has a far more colorful and diverse color palette than you might have realized.

Panda Ant-Surprisingly this charismatic "ant" was difficult to find, and involved translating a lot of spanish text. Alas I discovered this "ant" is actually a wingless wasp from Chile. The specimens collected and cataloged in the Virtual Biodiversity Insectarium were hermaphrodites about 8mm in length from a near coastal region in central Chile.
