This strange insect found preserved in amber represents a new species, genus, family and order of insects.
At first glance, it's an ant, second glance "not at all". ET maybe, ""The strangest thing about this insect is that the head looked so much like the way aliens are often portrayed," Poinar said. "With its long neck, big eyes and strange oblong head, I thought it resembled E.T. I even made a Halloween mask that resembled the head of this insect. But when I wore the mask when trick-or-treaters came by, it scared the little kids so much I took it off." Dr George Poinar
Early Earwig
Scary? Pretty sure my 200 boot on its head would be scary.
BS, more fake news.
I absolutely despise anyone who calls themselves a scientist.
I, for one, welcome our new overlords.
New ?? Hell, I dated her in the mid ‘80’s .
Probably two days old and still alive if you remove him from the sap.
Regardless, let’s fund this project.
Let the bidding start.
Do we have $1 million?
It’s an ant.
Close resemblance to the former president.
Thanks for posting. Insects are so very interesting, how amazing that a new Order has been discovered...
The world has seen an age of dinosaurs, an age of mammals, and yet to come perhaps one day there will be an age of Insects. What a fierce and beautiful world it might be.

Nonsense!
Its a somewhat damaged Earwig.
Probably was attacked before it hatched.
Praying mantis have triangular heads too...
