21005-21502 Straight-edge Red Parasol (Neurothemis terminata) female at rest. A widespread dragonfly, rare in Peninsular Malaysia, but common in Indonesia and the Philipines. Kossingolan Swamp, Dumoga Bone, Sulawesi *
21005-24507 'Wasp-mimicking' phasmid (Orthomeria forstenii) male on leaf in Lore Lindu National Park, Sulawesi. A wonderful example of batesian mimicry - whereas most stick insects move very slowly, these insects are more active and alert, and move about quickly in short scuttling bursts, all the time waving their antennae about like predatory wasps *
21005-24503 Moving leaf insect (Phyllium siccifolium) female on leaf. These are phasmids with a leaf-like appearance. The female has large leathery forewings (tegmina) that lie edge to edge on the abdomen and resemble, in their vein pattern, the midrib and veins in a leaf. Females are flightless and the hindwings have no function. Peleng Island; Central Sulawesi *
