    Hornet

    2

    Mantis

    Mantis religiosa (European mantis)

    A predatory insect with raptorial forelegs held in a "praying" posture, capable of swiveling its triangular head 180° and famous for the female's occasional sexual cannibalism.

    3

    Punkie

    Ceratopogonidae (family); regional name often refers to Culicoides spp.
