Myrmecoleon

The Ant Lions are mysterious creatures, rarely if ever seen due to their subterranean nature. They dig pits in the sand as traps for the unwary, devouring them when they fall to the bottom and are unable to climb back out. Some tales describe them as giant, partially-humanoid insects, like beastfolk - while others say they are chimerans, a combination of ant and lion features. They most commonly dwell deep in the desert, especially in the Wastes, patiently waiting for unwary prey.
