    Megalara garuda, after the half man-half eagle supernatural being of Hindu mythology (and national symbol of Indonesia). The giant wasp had previously been described as "the Komodo dragon of wasps" due to its large size, fearsome jaws, rarity and of course being endemic to Indonesia. It has never been studied alive, though, so everything about its lifestyle remains a mystery.
