Black Swallowtail (Papilio polyxenes)

βRobber Flyβ
Is that close enough? π
Though it doesn't look like a standard fly, the Robber Fly is actually a fly.
The sheer size of the insect can alarm people unfamiliar with it, but the loud buzzing it creates by furiously beating its wings can be more disturbing.
Flying insects like wasps, bees, beetles, and even other flies are allβ¦

ππ»ββοΈ TIL: π¦πͺ A 324-million-year-old fossil from West #Texas, collected in 1985 and shelved in a #museum drawer for decades, was recently reexamined under polarized light and identified as "Chosha praecursor", an #insect ancestor with 24 legs. Nine pairs of paddle-like limbs may have helped it swim or scuttle through shallow seas.

βMost people, when they see one spider they start screaming. And here, we have 100,000 spiders and everybody wants to learn about them β to me that is hard to believe.β
Agreed!!

CW: Shy little spider
This is one of the ant mimic jumping spiders, but I'm not sure which. If you know, please share. I was trying a more versatile diffusion setup, but it wasn't amazing. The spider pictured here is under a fine sheet of web though so in general, I guess it was fine. I want diffusion that is attached to my flash heads again. It has its drawbacks, but it is just so handy.

Can we please have more of such #ecology #zoology project videos? π
Here they are combining #research on #arthropods in mountain areas, #ElevationalGradients, and #DNAsequencing to assess the #SoilFauna in πΏπ¦, old and new one.

CW: Wasp glamour shot eye contact
This sweet girl has been the only wasp to pose for me since I've moved to Sri Lanka. She is easily the largest potter wasp (Delta pyriforme ssp. pyriforme) I've ever seen.

Round two, poll five of the #CAMBRIANSMACKDOWN!
Hallucigenia vs. Fortiforceps
A graphic with visuals of our contestants will be posted in the replies.
Please boost for reach so that we can see who the best #Cambrian era critter is!

Round one, poll nine of the #CAMBRIANSMACKDOWN!
#HALLUCIGENIA vs. #AEGIROCASSIS
Graphic with visuals of our fighters in the replies! Propaganda and boosts are encouraged!
#Poll #Tournament #Bracket #Cambrian #CambrianExplosion #Arthropods -
Presenting: THE #CAMBRIANSMACKDOWN! A silly Tumblr style bracket. I will create a series of polls to determine which screwy looking Cambrian era critter is perceived as the coolest on Mastodon!
Polls will start at 7 days long.
Depending on how well-received this is, the polls may shorten in length.
Polls coming soon. Enjoy. This thread will be for bracket updates rather than the polls.

Mighty #Anomalocaris stirs, spreading dust and terror throughout the #Cambrian sea. #Opabinia, #Hallucigenia, #Pikaia, #Canadia, #Burgessia, #Marella, and #Elrathia can only hope the rocks and ridges they cover behind will hide them.
Inspired by a display at the Naturkunde Museum Stuttgart that perfectly showed off the difference in size between Cambrian critters. At 40 cm, Anomalocaris was a leviathan.

A Common Mormon butterfly stops for a sip of nectar, from bougainvillea blossoms growing near a construction site.
Such is the dichotomy of life in Mumbai , where wildlife manages to eke out a living, even in the face of development.

#FossilAdventCalendar Day 12
#MarineLifeMonday#BritishColumbia's π¨π¦ #BurgessShale is one of our planet's most important important (and beautiful) #fossil sites. Sitting high in #BC's #RockyMountains, it's a window into the early evolution of #animals. Among its weird wonders is Hallucigenia (seen here in fossil and sculpture form at the #RoyalOntarioMuseum), a distant relative of #arthropods so unlike anything alive today that for years it was reconstructed upside down and backwards.
