   🚨 ARTHROPOD OF THE DAY 🚨
   
   Spike-headed katydid, or Panacanthus, is one of the conehead katydids. With a length of just 3 inches, it is considered one of the most fearsome animals on the planet among the 6,500 species of katydids.
   
   There are about 7 types of spiny devil katydid. The common feature of these types is that their bodies are covered with spikes, from their head to their thorax to their legs. These spikes help them easily blend into their environments to hide from predators.
   
   In the Ecuadorian Amazon region near Puerto Misahualli, you can find spike-headed katydids residing in the lush tropical rainforest.
   
   These insects are equipped with formidable mouthparts that allow them to feed on their food, despite the absence of teeth. Their jaws are so powerful and sharp that they can easily pierce your skin. But don’t worry, they do not pose any significant harm.
