Ever seen an alien before or something that had to do with alien. Well here we have some pictures showing many kind of insects that look a like an alien. Never seen before but seriously its some kinda weird. Actually there's plenty more in the world around us and many more that we never discover before. Although they look like an alien but the truth is they are only an insect.

This species of aliens has fooled humans for many years. Popularly known as a bumblebee of the Apidae family, they have donned a fuzzy yellow-and-black fur and spread rumours that some of them are stingless. Right, whatever, just careful with that thingy, dude!
This praying mantis male would certainly score a role in any alien movie. His acting talent is undisputed as he’s part of the flower mantis species - they pretend to be flowers and then attack their prey. How very cunning, indeed.
“I might look cute but I can sap you out!” Treehoppers have long fascinated biologists because of their unusual appearance. They belong to the Membracidae family and are closely related to cicadas and leafhoppers. They feed upon the sap found in plant stems, which they prick with their beaks.
“Hullo there, did I startle you? If I did pretty please, will you be my… ahem… buy my dinner?” This praying mantis is one of 2,000 species in the mantis order of insects. As predatory aliens, er, insects, they might better be called preying mantis.
Listen to me, Earthling, feel the mighty wrath of Gandalf the Green!” This green bush cricket of the Tettigoniidae family is still miffed because he wasn’t cast in Rings.
“Call me a cricket one more time!” Grasshoppers have horns or antennas that are shorter than their body, unlike their relatives’, the bush crickets. They may look well shielded but lose many a battle when they end up as a protein-rich delicacy on someone’s plate in many parts of the world.
This praying mantis looks straight out of Alien or Men in Black… No prizes for guessing who inspired whom.
