Had a few minutes to do some photography today. Pleased with this shot of a Texas leafcutter ant in our lab colony, standing in the fungus garden.

Horns are known from several beetle families, but click beetles rarely come to mind. Nevertheless, some species like this Semiotus from Ecuador have horn-like projections, two on the head and two "shoulder" horns on the pronotum. What are they used for? That's another mystery!

Whip spider (Paraphrynus laevifrons) covered with chloropid fly puparia. The parasitoid fly attacks the eggs carried by the female. When done, the maggots climb on the "childless" mom's back and pupate. She protects them during this period thanks to her motherly instincts.

Membracids are some of my favorite insects, and there are so many here in Colombia. Here’s one in the genus Bolbonota. It’s tiny, disguising itself as caterpillar poop or a bit of soil. #bugsky #insect #macro 🌿

This stylish little beetle (3-7 mm) is the Goldenrod Leaf Miner, Microrhopala vittata. I illustrated it as part of project to highlight the fauna associated w/ goldenrod, my favorite wildflower and a biodiversity superhero. The beetles rely on goldenrod for all of their life stages. #sciart 1/5 👇
