While I was watering the ornamental plants in front of my house, I suddenly came across a very tiny insect perched on a leaf. This is a parasitoid wasp, and it is incredibly small, even smaller than a red ant. At first glance, we would never even imagine that this is a wasp. I didn't even know what its body structure looked like before observing it from a very close distance. However, after photographing it with the help of my macro lens, I was able to see every unique structure of this wasp. This parasitoid wasp has a rounded abdomen that looks very much like a small pouch, directly connected to a very narrow, slender, and elongated waist, making its abdomen appear to be separated far from the front part of its body. However, the most interesting parts are its thorax and head, along with a pair of fairly long, slender antennae that point straight forward and upward.

Okay, friends, now I will share some pictures of this wasp here. I hope that the pictures I share can entertain all my friends.
