Wow Alin! That's really one strange-looking insect. Don't know how much its tail hampers it survival or aids it. Once you get the ID, I would love to read more about it.

Thanks for sharing!

Hello Alin,
This is a very fine capture of a Gasteruption wasp. You can easily find more information about this species on the web.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Salut Alin,
interesante "aratanii" se mai gasesc si in tara aia.
Nu imi aduc aminte sa fi vazut asa ceva cit am fost in tara.
Felicitarile mele pentru realizarea si redarea acestei insecte.
O seara frumoasa,
Adrian

Hello Alin,
An unusual looking wasp captured in a great pose. Nicely composed with very natural colors and good DOF. TFS.

Hello Alin,
A fine macro of a Gasteruptiid wasp taken from a good POV with nice sharpness. More in your note about the species and how you took the shot would be welcome.
Best regards,
Ivan

Siemanko Alin!
Not yet I could see such an insect, super snapshot, good composition and the background.
I am greeting Sawek

Hallo Alin
Thanks for sharing, such a colourful and friendly image. Thanks also for your friendship that you share amongst fellow members on the site. This is such an interesting looking creature, with striking and prominent features. The selection of colours on the insect is really eye-catching, and the long tang is fascinating to look at. The tiny wings, and the antennas is well seen and this image is just tops. It was a pleasure to stop by such a beauty. Best regards.
Anna
