New strange creatures discovered in South American rainforests

This strange creature with orange-orange body is only 7mm long. In its tail there is a silver beard, rising up like the "electrocuted" hair of the world-famous Troll doll in the 1990s. This beard is made of a wax secreted from a solid thyroid gland. Distinct in the belly of an insect.

It is known that this strange creature was discovered by the US team at the tropical forest in South America. Based on the shape and characteristics of living, scientists say that this creature has a close relationship with the pupa.

In his speech, Professor Trond Larsen, Princeton University (New Jersey, USA) said that he spent hours studying how to release the silk of the pupae for comparison. Eventually, he narrowed the hypothesis from 16 to 4. According to judgment, it could only be one of four species of Dictyopharidae, Nogodinidae, Lophopidae or Tropiduchidae.
