Peanut Headed Lanternfly

Fulgora Laternaria looking like a peanut and showing false eyes to resemble that of a lizard or a serpent. The insect was originally - and mistakenly - believed to be luminescent. When attacked, it protects itself by displaying large yellow fake eyes on its hind wings to frighten the aggressor, and releases a foul-smelling substance. This species inhabits tropical forests in Mexico, Central America and South America.
