This is an adult green lacewing (Semachrysa jade sp. n.) discovered in the Malaysian rainforest via this image posted to the photo-sharing site Flickr.
A pretty picture of bug posted to a social media website led to the real-world discovery of a new species of green lacewing in the Malaysian rainforest.
Guek Hock Ping took photos of the green lacewing and posted them to photo-sharing site Flickr where entomologist Shaun Winterton from the California Department of Food and Agriculture stumbled upon them.
A network of black lines and flecks of blue were something the expert had never seen before. He shot Ping an email.
