"I still wonder how he goes, since it is a longer jaw, like a monster," he said as quoted Dailymail, Saturday (24/3).
Kimsey explained, the jaws of a giant wasp is so large that it is often wrapped around both sides of his head. When the jaw is open, the jaw was longer than the front legs.
Kimsey found this type of wasp soldiers in Pegununggan Mekongga, in the southeastern region of Sulawesi. The size is very large and ferocious looking to make it like a giant wasp Wasp Komodo Island. "I named Garuda, such as the national symbol of Indonesia, is a bird," he said.

This large jaw, he had an important function for the wasps. "The jaws of these play a role in defense and reproduction," he said.
In other species in the genus of men, said Kimsey, they keep at the entrance to the nest. This serves to protect the nests from nest parasites and robbed, and for this he demanded payment from the female by mating with him every time he returned to the nest. "So this is how to guarantee the reproduction of patrilineal line of wasps," he also said jaws of wasps are large enough to wrap around your chest and hug female wasp during mating.
