Hmm... This mutillid wasp is not truly mimicking an ant and no aspect of its biology is connected with ants. It only looks like an ant to humans, not to insects. However, as it is a hymenopteran, I would suggest this mission http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/9004...
Thanks :)
And the second one looks like the Convolvulus Hawk-moth, Agrius convolvuli
Beautiful spotting! Please add it to my Monocot Beauties mission

Thank you both!
Wonderful photo! These water creatures are so-o cute!
Wow, that look super interesting! Looks like this caterpillar is parasitized by both wasps and flies.
Thanks, Jopy! I was really helpful!
Beautiful shot! And cute fluffy being.
