Lacewings, Part 2: Hatching out of the stalked egg would be a creature much like this one that I spotted at MacGregor Point Provincial Park, August 2017. This is a Lacewing Larva, of the Green Lacewing Family (Chrysopidae). These insects are sometimes called "aphid lions" because of their voracious predation upon aphids. They use their sickle-shaped mandibles to pierce prey and suck up the liquefied interior. This particular larva was sucking up spilled hot chocolate, apparently an alternative food source. . . . . . . . #nature #ontario #lacewinglarvae #lacewinglarva #neuroptera #lacewings #chrysopidae #insectlarva #insects_of_our_world #larvae #aphidlion #entomology #entomologyphotography #ontarioprovincialparks #macgregorpoint #macgregorpointprovincialpark #naturephotography #insect (at MacGregor Point Provincial Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDYsXP6pQIF/?igshid=1adag4yny0660
