A cuckoo wasp is looking for one of my Osmia females to make a mistake. The species may be Sapyga angustata.
another gothic looking creature, completely blending to the underneath of a branch and required the very sharp eyes of the guide to point it to us. this species have very strange orange spikes on its back. this shot even captured some cob-web on its pair of "horns" at the front of the head.
updated:
this species have been identified as a rare male Parectatosoma species endemic in Madagascar and not yet described, based on emails sent to me by various experts. glad that i had a chance to see such an amazing creature.

they are big...at least for the UK.
The female of the above can reach a size of 18 mm, with the male being about 4 mm smaller. It is mainly found in houses and gardens but also under logs and holes in banks especially in southern England.
Males and females live together for some weeks after mating until the male dies, when his remains will be eaten by the female. The egg sac is spherical and covered with a thin layer of soil or wood-chips (depends on habitat) or, if these materials are not available, then with remains of prey etc. This layer is often covered with another layer of silk, and the whole is placed within the web structure.
