Check out this poor guy

tumblr_meya2otYwc1r8vrhxo1_1280 (1)Here we have a very unfortunate day for the Cereal Leaf beetle. To the left, we see a parasitoid wasp called Tetrastichus julishas laid it’s eggs inside the larvae of the beetle, which shall ultimately bring this vermin’s demise. The spawn will feast on the larva’s insides before bursting fourth and killing the bugger right then and there. Just remember, if you think your day is bad, it could always be worse.
