Auspex Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 nothing - it's all auspex' fault. i told him to just scrap the default lexicon and add in all the bad words he wants excluded but he swore (figuratively speaking) that he didn't know any bad words so he couldn't do it. OK, fixed "fairy"; while I was at it, I changed "t r a c e r" to read "bisonbits".

Frank Menser Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 With the new pic, I can make better sense of it; it does resemble a mantis in some ways. Yep....... Be true to the reality you create. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barefootgirl Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 OK, fixed "fairy"; while I was at it, I changed "t r a c e r" to read "bisonbits". You two go together like peas and carrots:D Moropus it does resemble an Antilion head.

Compare that with this Mantis... Be true to the reality you create. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare that with this Mantis... True, but the mantids that I am familiar with have a much wider triangular head than this fossil insect. We need an entomologist!

barefootgirl Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 You might want to look at the Leptomyrmex, Formicidae or spider ant.
