Did you know #Alaska has over 30 species of lady beetle? Here's a great article for Alaskans who want to make their garden #bug friendly. Thanks @awenninger.bsky.social www.uaf.edu/ces/publicat...

Beetles and Caribbean fieldwork! I could use a second PhD.

Time for #Insect Fair at the MEM! 400 third graders will visit the museum and learn about #bugs today. #bugsky

Live with ants, get weird body mods.

Even large and conspicuous insects can still be unknown to science concludes new study published in Insect Systematics and Diversity by researchers from @nhmdk.bsky.social - describing 61 new species within the predatory beetle genus Platydracus. doi.org/10.1093/isd/...

Im generally not happy with this shot for several reasons, but the oak treehopper (Platycotis vityata) is without a doubt one of the most beautiful #insects in North America. #bugsky #nature

I'm not ashamed to shill for #bugsky

I uncovered a cuddle-puddle of stink bugs in my driveway. Probably brown marmorated stink bugs (Halyomorpha halys) #entomology #insects

Took a snap of this Batman hoverfly in our garden and then noticed it has what looks like 2 tiny pseudo scorpion attached. #invertebrates #norfolk

Dear #childrensbook artists, Please learn how many fingers T. rex had. Thank you.

Ooh nomina dubia! That taxonomic tea.

Katydid? Bush cricket? What do you call these big green tettigoniids? #bugsky #entomology #photography #macro #nature

Who says rove beetles aren't beautiful?

Excuse me sir, do you have a moment... #entomology

Gray tree #frog (Dryophytes versicolor)

If their product was really revolutionary, they wouldn't need to cram it down our throats.

All I want for #Taxonomist Appreciation Day is to talk about obscure brown beetles 🎉🪲

They don't do #science like they used to. In 1923, W. J. Baerg let a black widow #spider bite him so he could record a minute by minute account of the effects. "5:15. Arrived at hospital and went to bed." Yes its a series. No he didn't die. #arachnophobia #entomology
