This tiny translucent #clam species has been around for perhaps 12,000 years, but this is the first time anyone has seen them alive! Read all about our collaboration with @MSI_UCSB on this #bivalve discovery in the @ucsantabarbara Current: news.ucsb.edu/2022/020757/ne…

Would you dress up as a bumble bee for Halloween? Several invertebrates have evolved to mimic bumble bees. Here's an original bumble bee & some copycats — the snowberry clearwing moth, bee beetle & bee fly. None of these mimics are even bees at all! Who “wore” it better?

This #jumpingSpider in the genus _Phiddipus_ is about the size of a pencil eraser, a fact which is not very comforting to the scentless plant bug it’s eating. Unless you’re a tiny insect, you need not fear our jumping spiders. instagram.com/p/CjvdUc2pTtv/ #spiderSeason

What are these #mushrooms? When + where do they fruit, pushing to the surface from a hidden network? What would drive a person to spend a whole year studying #fungi? All this and more at sbnature.org/blog in the original research of senior intern Quasar Stella! #fungiFriday

Thank you @LA_Gems for the tour! Our exhibits team was impressed by new scanning electron microscope exhibit, and couldn’t resist @NHMLA’s famous Spider Pavilion, either (see female Green Lynx _Peucetia viridans_ with egg sac). instagram.com/p/CjLW3srpmZe/

Made the most of being closed for a day at the Sea Center not only to clean our windows and solar panels, but to detail the Life in the Surge habitat. Like Brenna Chang says, "the only way to do a solid deep clean is to get in yourself!" instagram.com/p/CjDrNHKJ7xw/

Sea Otters have a cool mixture of tooth types: pointy canines in the front for ripping soft flesh, and flat molars in the back for crushing hard shells. Check out the comparison with their badger relatives: instagram.com/p/CixyzBDJCFy/ 🦷#SeaOtterAwarenessWeek 🦷 #SOAW2022

We’re among many asking @LosPadresNF to prepare a real Environmental Impact Statement for massive logging and clearance plan for 368 square miles. @forestwatch is leading the charge to request LPNF not to skip science. Let officials know you feel same: LPFW.org/ERP
