Dasymutilla satanas
Dasymutilla satanas, also known as Satan's velvet ant, is a species of velvet ant found in the deserts of the Great Basin region of North America. The name is most likely a reference to the "hellish" deserts where it dwells. The females of this species are relatively large for the genus, comparable to the size of Dasymutilla magna or Dasymutilla sackenii females.
