Gigapede
Creature — Insect
Shroud (This permanent can't be the target of spells or abilities.)
At the beginning of your upkeep, if Gigapede is in your graveyard, you may discard a card. If you do, return Gigapede to your hand.

I think I have Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth already and I had at one point seen Gigapede and Deadly Insect.
Thank you for the other ideas too!

Hey man great first commander deck, looks like a lot of fun. Consider adding some creature upgrades
Whiptail Wurm and Panglacial Wurm is another good one since you can tutor for it using Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse.
IF you can afford it, it's 100% worth it to run Chromatic Lantern in a deck like this since you're running 20 ish basic lands.
Another good option is Gigapede and Deadly Insect which are both basically 6/6 shroud beatsticks in your deck. Other good options include Coiling Woodworm and Thunderblust
Also you need some hates enablers like Rhythm of the Wild and Fires of Yavimaya.
Good luck dude!

And the reason Eternal is showing as illegal is cause' all of the MH2 stuff isn't out yet.
My reasoning is less efficient cards that happen to be insects make for more Grist, and if you've got a certain insect density, you don't really need other dredge sources.

Deadeye Navigator is great with Zegana. Stormsurge Kraken and Gigapede are nice too, because they come out a turn before Zegana, give a lot of cards with her, and are hard to remove. Adding Great Whale and Palinchron gives you a way to make infinite mana and draw your deck with Deadeye as well.
Big, high CMC creatures are totally unnecessary. Zegana works much better with bounce/blink effects to draw more cards for less mana, through spells like Ghostly Flicker, Displace, and Illusionist's Stratagem. Since you want to win through combo anyway, there's no reason to have Eldrazi titans, Ghalta, or Myojin in the deck. Those flicker spells also combo with Great Whale/Palinchron and Eternal Witness/Archaeomancer to make infinite mana.
Your countermagic has really high mana costs. In my opinion, Miscalculation, Mana Leak, Spell Pierce, Arcane Denial, and Memory Lapse should all be used before any 3 mana counterspells. That being said, Forbid is super gross with Zegana as your commander. Also, Scour from Existence is terrible.
Chord of Calling, Worldly Tutor, and Green Sun's Zenith would all improve consistency. Woodland Bellower and Fierce Empath can help get you to your first big creature.

Nice deck. Take my +1.
Have you considered a little "beetle talk" in Commune with Nature or Commune with the Gods? Since you don't really care about the yard, the first might be better, but commune 2 can also filter for path.
(If it weren't modern, Gigapede would be awesome with commune with the gods.)

Prime Speaker Zegana: One of the few commanders that does its thing on cast. Always included Stormsurge Kraken and Gigapede.
Karametra, God of Harvests: It's just lands and creatures. Don't worry about it.
Progenitus: 5 color draw-go. 30 instants and very consistent, without mana from nonland sources of course. Permananents are for scrubs.
