That's the male Ceratosolen solmsi done, this guy has no eyes! Next is a female Pleistodontes. Both male and female Agaonids are equally odd, so I'm featuring each from two different genera! *** Fixed!!! The hind coxae are bigger and more square ish in shape.***

My wasp drawing project, is closely coming to a close. I've only got 4 left to draw after this eyeless male Ceratosolen (Agaonidae, Fig wasps). This is a basic sketch that I've been working on. The middle set of legs need to be slightly repositioned, but overall, it's pretty much ready to be coloured. Hopefully the proportions and anatomy are mostly correct! Obviously minor changes still need to be made and will tackle them soon. I'll just have to wait and see how it will look coloured. I can't wait to finish this project. I've been working on it since January of 2024! Also, if there are any inaccuracies or mistakes/corrections, please let me know! I'd be more than happy to be informed so that my drawing is as accurate as possible!

Agaonids are so weird, but awesome! Pleistodontes sp. (Male on left, female on right).
