It's #WorldBeeDay! 🐝💛🍯🖤

This gorgeous gynandromorph potter flower bee is described in a 1845 article in The Zoologist by English entomologist Frederick Smith. It's pictured from above (left) and below (right).

Happy Easter to all who celebrate! 🌱

No cute lambs or bunnies in my files, I'm afraid. I do, however, have a *lot* of queer chickens. This is Hector, a 'hen-cock' pictured in the Sporting Magazine in March 1833 and mentioned by Charles Darwin in his 1868 book The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication!

⚰️ Happy Halloween! 🧛

Same-sex sexual behaviours in bats were first documented in 1895.

Here's a more recent study: http://www.italian-journal-of-mammalogy.it/Same-sex-sexual-behaviour-in-bats,77304,0,2.html.

Wishing everyone a nice, relaxing weekend!✨

I've been writing about frog sex this week, so here's a lovely plate from German painter and naturalist August Johann Rösel von Rosenhof's sumptuous Historia naturalis ranarum nostratium ('The Natural History of Our Frogs,' 1758). 🐸 🐸

I mustn't let May go by without a nod to my 2009 article on the discovery, during the 19th century, of same-sex copulation among Maybugs (also known as Maybeetles, cockchafers, doodlebugs). Do look out for them at it in your garden! 🌈🌳

No cute bunnies or lambs in my files, I'm afraid. I do, however, have a *lot* of queer chickens. This is a painting of a hen-cock (c. 1900), a prize fighter, by English artist Herbert Atkinson. 🥚🐥🐔

Lovely colour plate depicting gynandromorph specimens in the collections of the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. Produced by German entomologist Friedrich Klug in 1829. 🦋 🐞

Today I'm writing about the first descriptions of toad sex.

Chinese herpetologist Ch’eng-chao Liu, writing in the Peking Natural History Bulletin in 1932, was certainly thorough . . .

Apparently, in the 1970s the publisher Heron brought out an edition of OoS with the tag—

"For every real man who has a place in his heart where no women are allowed."

To celebrate the 163rd anniversary of the publication of Origin of Species today, the Darwin Correspondence Project at #CambridgeUL has published the full edition of #Darwin 's correspondence online! Explore more than 15000 letters, from Darwin's first letter in 1822 to his death in 1882.

Much as I like physical books, it's really exciting to have the collected correspondence now full-text searchable:

Is it just me (or my instance) or are there really no toots (and not really very many tweets, either) from #HSS22 in Chicago? I'm assuming you'd all be using the same handle here as per the birdsite... If there's a different one, someone please tell me (once you all wake up later today, obviously...)!
