This almost invisible insect is part of the order of Zoraptera, And there are 22 worldwide known species in this order. Their scientific name means "purely wingless", But that was before they discovered the ones with wings. They spin silken tunnels along the inside of wood, And they feed mostly on mites and smaller insects. |
