  • Zorotypus hubbardi

    Zorotypus hubbardi is a species of angel insect in the order Zoraptera, a small and enigmatic group of insects sometimes called 'angel insects' due to their delicate appearance. The species was described by Caudell in 1918 and is distributed across the southeastern United States. Zorapterans are typically found in decaying wood and leaf litter, where they live in small colonies. Most species in the order are polymorphic, with both winged and wingless forms occurring in the same colony.
