Meet the Brazilian treehopper, Bocydium globulare. This replica made by Alfred Keller for the Berlin's Museum of Natural History may look like the product of some science fiction writer's imagination, but is based on a real insect, also known as "The Bell Bearer". As if this and the rest of the gallery of surreal insects aren't enough, I also include a bonus gallery of some of nature's most glamorous insects and arachnids.

If all creatures were same scale it'd be like a sci-fi Movie
I want one! Does that make me strange?
