Four-toothed Mason Wasp (Monobia quadridens)
One could just hang out at a Milkweed plant and get so many different insect species.

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.

ππ»ββοΈ ICYMI: π¬πΈ Japanese #nature photographer Pendora (γΊγγ©γ) captures tiny globular #springtails measuring around 0.3 mm in length.
These wetland micro-arthropods display face-to-face courtship interactions and use a spring-loaded tail organ called a furcula to execute high-speed jumps that look like #teleportation.

ππ»ββοΈ TIL: π©οΈπͺ° Male #dragonflies engage in aerial dogfights to defend territory, using simple visual rules like fighter pilots.
Researchers in the #UK used stereoscopic cameras to reconstruct 3D flight paths of the scarlet Trithemis aurora dragonfly. The #insects pull up to 6 Gs and compete for tail chase positioning rather than intercepting like they do with prey.

Ancient #fossil sheds big light on #evolution enigma, solving a 100-year arthropod mystery
https://phys.org/news/2025-04-ancient-fossil-big-evolution-enigma.html"#Helmetia expansa belongs to a rare group of early #arthropods called concilitergans, close relatives of #trilobites. Unlike trilobites, concilitergans lacked calcified exoskeletons, so their remains only fossilized under exceptional conditionsβlike those in the 508-million-year-old #BurgessShale of Canada, where even soft tissues like guts, legs, and gills were preserved."
