Ichneumon Wasp

This female Ichneumon Wasp was wandering all over a Hibiscus flower. Every now and then she would freeze and wave her antennae, perhaps trying to detect the presence of its host insect to lay her eggs onto.

These Ichneumon wasps are important parasitoids of other insects. Common hosts are larvae and pupae of Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, and Lepidoptera.[wiki]

As seen in this picture the Hibiscus flowers are ravaged by Beetles. I guess this female wasp actually targets that very Beetle.

Wish to witness the action sometime soon. :-)
