Scornet

The Scornet is a wasp-like creature in aspect that was discovered during Captain Charlie's expeditions onto PNF-404.

Biology
Scornets themselves aren't very big compared to other creatures, and has the most drastic difference between its two variants.

The more common sight is the Scornet soldiers, which are cone-shaped insects with blue and yellow feathers, and a stinger on both the back end and the front of its head.

The second form of Scornet is much bigger, and often the queen in a Scornet hive. Its at least four to five times larger than a soldier Scornet, and extra features the soldiers don't: its mouth is very elongated with several baleen acting like strings. Its body is covered in yellow feathers with blue tips along their length, and it has two gangly arms with their two-fingered hands are covered in white fur. It also has an extra set of wings that resemble that of a butterfly or dragonfly.

Interestingly, a make variant of the Maestro has recently been discovered with notable differences between both workers and the queen: it is smaller with blue appendages and incapable of flight as it has no wings. This makes the Scornet another example of sexual dimorphism on two separate instances.

Social Structure
A hive of Scornets is made up of a bee-like social structure, much like the Shearwig hive structure but more advanced and organized than the prior.

The leading Scornet, known as the Scornet Maestro, has been observed commanding a huge amount of Scornet soldiers in highly complex coordination, either protecting the queen or attacking prey. In fact, explorations revealed that Scornets have highly evolved specific formations easily comparable to that of military formation:
 * 1) Drill Formation - this formation is the main form used in offense, in which the Scornet soldiers go in a cone-like formation, and each one flying forward from the tip in a singular line. Most compare this to a machine gun being used.
 * 2) Wave Formation - This formation is called up in a war-like charge. The Scornet soldiers line up in a five by twenty structure, and all fly forward at once. This is mostly used to intimidate predators.
 * 3) Ring Formation - the commonly used hunting method, and arguably the simplest formation, the soldier Scornets surround the prey and then fly together to attack with little chance of escape.
