If you like exploring biodiversity, give #DuoNat a try, too :) I use it to learn to distinguish birds by sight, and I love it! The link is set to "Bird species in North America", but it aims to cover all life groups. Check the tutorial behind the help button. #biodiversity #birds #iNaturalist

Great #Lepidoptera #biodiversity #DuoNat riddle :) duo-nat.web.app?pairId=285&l... First I had no idea, but then I found the distinguishing characteristic, and *boom* :D Check tutorial behind help button.

I love #DuoNat so much :D I had no idea #Tenebrionidae are so weirdly diverse! Check the tutorial behind the help button: duo-nat.web.app?pairId=2025&... The Android version is better :) More features coming soon! #beetles #iNaturalist #biodiversity

What a beautiful fly! I think Hedriodiscus pulcher (a soldier fly, Stratiomyidae). Otovalo, Ecudaor. #iNaturalist www.inaturalist.org/observations...

If you want to learn to distinguish different kind of #bees, give #DuoNat a try :) for now, it only has 25 pairs, but if there's demand, I'm happy to add many more. duo-nat.web.app?pairId=775&l... Check the tutorial behind the help button. #WorldBeeDay #biodiversity #iNaturalist

if you want, have a try at #DuoNat, and tell me if an LBB tag filter might be something people would enjoy :) duo-nat.web.app?pairId=2854&... check the short tutorial behind the help button. I'll add modes "both taxa from same region" and "limit to hierarchy level x" later. #biodiversity #birds

@gork do you think #DuoNat is the best app for #biodiversity exploration, and totally worth supporting with USD7 per month?

Something Dr. Ronald Ochoa at USDA once told me stuck with me: mites aren’t arachnids. I didn’t appreciate how true that was. Because they’re tiny, we didn’t see them as a miniaturized slice of chelicerate diversity. Great read by Dr. Sam Bolton. #Chelicerata 🪲🪳 #Invert 🧪

Hey, is #FlyWeek still on?? :D I just spent all day adding flies to #DuoNat, hoping that now I can finally get a feeling for how they are all related. Maybe so can you :)

Have you ever seen an #owlfly? :) duo-nat.web.app?pairId=606&l... They are are related to #antlions and #lacewings, and superficially resemble #dragonflies! #iNaturalist #DuoNat #biodiversity

God may have an inordinate fondness for beetles; I have one for #flies :D @alexwild.bsky.social you once said if not ants, you should have done #diptera. I feel you! #DuoNat has 150 pairs of diptera so far: duo-nat.web.app?level=all&ph... #iNaturalist #biodiversity #DuoNat

Dance flies!! :DD the top image (awesome shot by #iNaturalist's @kueda.sfba.social.ap.brid.gy ) shows them carrying a nuptial gift. duonat-42.web.app?pairId=3825&... - Check the tutorial behind the help button. this pair is hard (3 chilis)!! (at least for me) #DuoNat #biodiversity #diptera

ONE OBSERVATION on #iNaturalist for the #Micropezidae species Badisis ambulans!! www.inaturalist.org/taxa/1378472... the larvae develop in pitcher plants, and they imitate #ants quite well. #biodiversity

How cool are beetle flies :D duo-nat.web.app?pairId=3808&... TIL that they're related to Lauxaniidae, which I always confuse with Drosophilidae. I love the "ancestry" button (top next to the chili) for this! #Duonat #biodiversity #flies #diptera #beetles #coleoptera #ConvergentEvolution

Meloe sp, Blister Beetle. Only realized there’s a tachinid egg on its back after looking at the photos. By the way, don’t pick these up. They release a chemical that can burn your skin. Not super common on your hands, but still use a stick or something. #entomology #Invert #coleoptera 🪲🪳🌿

Hello new followers, in addition to birds I spend the warmer months chasing bugs. Here is a fun one for #FlyWeek, a stalk-eyed fly found in the Ecuadorian cloud forest. (Richardia stylops), El Septimo Paraiso Lodge, Ecuador

*hands you one, and you immediately stiffen as if in a trance, and begin to chant "Rake-legged mite! Rake-legged mite! Rake-legged mite!"* (Caeculidae)

Likely Emblyna sublata. The male was carefully approaching a female, moving through an almost invisible maze of silk. I watched him dance, slow and deliberate. I couldn’t get both in focus at once. The male is the red one. #macrophotography 🌿🪲🪳 #Invert

not sure you'll even see this :) but you might enjoy #DuoNat, the biodiversity I'm currently developing. duo-nat.web.app?level=1%2C2&... I set it to NA birds, easy + medium pairs. this really helped me to get a feeling for biodiversity, maybe it will do the same for you :)

I quit my day job and travel the world, doing nature photography and developing the #DuoNat app. Bearing witness to Earth's beauty. Showing people what is. So we don't have to show the future what was. Follow me on an amazing journey into #biodiversity. DuoNat account: @duonat.bsky.social
