Left top, a cricket; right top, a Curculionid beetle; left bottom, an ant all three have been infected, colonized and finally killed by the Cordyceps parasitic fungus, which can now be seen sprouting from their body joints. Right bottom, a Geometrid caterpillar has been instead parasitized by wasp larvae, which are now pupating.
