Hetwan

The Hetwan are a race of fictional alien creatures from the K.A. Applegate series Everworld. The Hetwan are large, sentient insects that seem to exist as a collective hive rather than as a group of individuals. Male Hetwan consist of two arms, a pair of wings, fly-like eyes, and three constantly moving claws near their mouths. The claws are used to grasp a tube that is then used to project the Hetwan's acidic saliva. They continue moving at a slower pace after death. Female Hetwan are flying translucent sacks of organs. They travel in packs, where, upon encountering male Hetwan, are savagely torn apart, thus birthing perhaps a dozen Hetwan on the waist of the male.
