    To say common is not really I had seen once but the bug is biggest than this in the magazine. I meet this insect actually by chance when they parked on the sphg. moss probably to drink or enjoy the cool area. The design basically more or less the same got eye ,nose and mouth.

    Me too! I really like the skull spider/crab. That one is really uniquely strange.
