New paper out! We describe three new species of giant mealybugs from Mexico & Guatemala. You think spiders have a lot of eyes until you look at male Puto mealybugs. Some species have 18 eyes in total! Pictured alive is Puto decorosus from California. mapress.com/zt/article/vie… 1/

A really neat bug nymph I found under the bark of a rotting oak. Planthopper in the family Achilidae. North central Florida
hey! every single bug on this page was painted with cochineal red- paint made with the pigment FROM bugs! How cool is that!
Handsome male Habronattus carolinensis jumper for #SpiderSaturday. Northeast Florida
A cixiid planthopper nymph. I found an aggregation of these under a rotting log where they feed on the roots of plants. The wax tails remind me of a paint brush 🖌️ Northeast Florida
A long-necked seed bug (Myodocha annulicornis) from some recent field work in northeast Florida.
Here it is having a clean...
check the pedipalps (out front) on this immature Hesperonemastoma harvester what Wolff et al 2016 called "sticky whips". the sticky comes from plumose setae with glandular secretions which combine to capture small agile prey items paper here: academic.oup.com/zoolinnean/art…
キノコバエの幼虫が背負っていたウンチを土台に繭をつくる様子(タイムラプス) 器用に複雑な構造の繭を作っていく。 この種類は菌世界ではなく樹上でくらすタイプのキノコバエの幼虫で、梅雨の時期くらいからアオキとかクワで見られる。 「繭作りそうだな」とカメラ設置してみたら偶然撮れた。

Meet Australia's most recently named and described longhorn beetle: Excastra albopilosa! I was lucky enough to discover this remarkable species while camping @binnaburra in 2021. Have a read of the UQ News article for more detail and a link to the paper. #entomology #newspecies

Beautiful & werid Periegops suterii, this little spider is only found around Banks Peninsula, Christchurch, New Zealand. A rather rare little spider. This spider is quite unique, from other spiders in the fact that it only has 6 eyes (most spiders have 8 eyes) Thanks Vikki, Kate

Fulgora laternaria from Finca Heimatlos Eco Lodge and Farm, near Puyo, Ecuador.
濡れた落ち葉の上でせっせと何か食べてるクモマルトビムシの一種 食べ歩きつつ唐突に触角を掃除し始めたりと、マルトビムシ類は物怖じせずに自然な姿を撮影しやすい。 カメラをルーペ感覚で使い、観るついでに撮るという感じでノーカットで何分も撮影してしまうことも多いグループ。
The striking #Phanaeini #dungbeetle Oxysternon lautum is a rather rare species that I now understand to be restricted to seasonally inundated Amazonian várzea rainforest, in contrast to its much more abundant & similar congener O. conspicillatum, occurring widely on terra firme.
itsy bitsy spider, literally Usofila, from Trinity County CA these are generally too small for my search image (*that's what I tell myself!!); found by my grad student T Hays
It's the #WorldRobberflyDay, folks.
It's #worldrobberflyday today! Here is one of the most fearsome apex predators of the Bornean jungle. An Ommatidius species of robberfly. Very fierce, very brave, very tiny. My finger for scale. @flygirlNHM

Haven't been on here much, but I've got a question for @MCAsche Have you ever seen Polistes sampling spittlebug froth and if so, what is she doing?
First Scorpion Fly I've spotted this year. Female, doesn't have the 'stinger' tail (that the males have that don't actually sting).
10 days later
In all the decades of caterpillar rearing, I have never seen a case of parasitoidism as extreme as this. Anyone knows what it is? On tomato today, Gainesville, FL (host - probably once was a cabbage looper). RT if you don't but want to find out.
accidentally let thousands of dollars worth of my plants perish during a depressive episode, so i’m coping by painting each one & turning them into jewelry lol
And the final one for today ... Cephalothrips monilicornis (female, apterous form). This thrips is breeding at the base of grasses and apparently feeding on leaf tissues. Body length: 1,3mm
And a second one ... Bolothrips icarus (female, apterous form). This species is also living in dense grass tussocks and is feeding on fungi. Body length about 2mm.
However wild you think your weekend was, this cicada nymph went harder!
Ok @erincpow, I’m coming to you once again. Sorry for the blurry photo, but my daughter saw this in the wildflowers on a hike today. Looks like a termite, but the wings are too far back.
オーロラゴキブリ、もういいだろってくらい写真を撮りました。まだ撮ります。美しい。 #2024GWゴキブリウィーク
A first picture of the #thrips collected yesterday: Bolothrips bicolor (male, apterous form): This species is thermophilic and known to live in dense grass tussocks. Its is feeding on fungi. Body length: 1,4mm
What a strange ecosystem! Went to the „badlands“ at the southern slope of the Gleichen Fortress (Thuringia). Found many thrips in the grass tussocks: Cephalothrips and other interesting taxa. Tomorrow, back home at the microscope, I will hopefully be able to get some great shots!
