Anisoscelis alipes

The matador bug, Anisoscelis alipes, is a species of leaf-footed bug in the family Coreidae. It has been observed in Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, Ecuador, Venezuela, and Mexico. It was first described by French entomologist Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville in 1833. Anisoscelis flavolineatus, previously considered a distinct species, is currently considered a synonym of A. alipes.
The large colourful flags on the legs are not used in reproductive competition, but appears to have an aposematic anti-predator function with birds.
