Met this lovely and impressive _Camponotus_ princess*, damn near an inch long, on my way getting groceries.
* Until she takes off her wings and settles down to start a new colony. Then she's a queen. Note: I made this up

Impressionist version of a carder bee, Anthidium manicatum, accidentally created by my camera, a fast moving bee, and a foto from too far away, plus my cellphone’s contrast enhancement software. Something about it speaks to me.

A strategy to escape predation of the robber fly kind is to become too big, or too small, like this solitary bee, Nomioides sp. Seen here foraging on fennel flowers, which are tiny. The bee is not larger than about 3 mm.

Here is its cousin, Halictus sexcinctus, seen this morning foraging on mint flowers.

Found my favorite bee, the tiny and aptly named Nomioides minutissimus. Here foraging on mint flowers.

What a photo. And love it when animals incidentally carry uniquely identifying markers, like this masked bee dragging about a dead ant, mandibles clamping its leg:

Mating bumblebees, seen just now in Cambridge, UK. Seems late for the season, wondering if these are new reproductives, in which case they are out rather early.
Bombus terrestris (presumably), garden bumblebee.

Slides from my talk last night to the Field #Naturalists Association of #Canberra:
"Lessons from #Malaise trapping in Aranda"
As with most of my talks, there are few notes, but the gallery of amazing #insects may mean something to some of you.

I'm speaking today at the Field #Naturalists Association of #Canberra meeting (held in the Slatyer Seminar Room at #ANU at 19:30). Visitors are welcome.
I'll give an overview of some of the interesting insects collected in a #MalaiseTrap over a year in a Canberra suburb, including some of the things we can learn from the resulting specimens and #DNA. Many of the specimens were sequenced as part of the International Barcode of Life project (#IBOL). There will be plenty of photos of insects and other invertebrates.
The FNAC meeting each month starts an hour and a half after the monthly meeting of the Canberra #Python Users Group, also on the #ANU campus, so it's quite possible to attend both. The topic this month is a "Talk Writing Workshop".

took the fancy camera to high park this morning!
i was mostly looking for galls for #GallWeek but i also saw plenty of sand wasps enjoying the sun, and a coyote! i was walking away from it but it crossed the street to avoid me anyway and a car that was going too fast had to stop for it 🙄
(there are Plans to gradually #BanCars in High Park, people are big mad)

Aphid wasp (Pemphredon sp.) on a fava bean leaf. These are cavity nesters and will cram dozens of paralyzed aphids into a hollow stem for a single larva to consume. Apparently very fond of roses so save the bigger branches for your insect hotel when you prune them. #wasps #aphids #insects #hymenoptera #crabronidae #roses

The burrowing bees are so cute. They'll sit right at the entrance of their holes and, when you pass by, immediately retreat. However if you wait patiently they'll come back up again.
I thought I also saw immense bees buzzing around, but they turned out to be furry scarab beetles of some kind!

Ein neuer Duft für die #Bienenkönigin.
“Unsere Studie stellt diese Annahme in Frage und zeigt ein viel komplexeres Bild der #Evolution.”Bei #Honigbienen sorgt die Königin durch einen speziellen Duftstoff dafür, dass ihre #Arbeiterinnen unfruchtbar bleiben und ihr dienen. Ein solches Königinnenpheromon haben Forscher nun erstmals auch bei einer #Bienenart mit weit einfacherem Staat nachgewiesen – der #Furchenbiene. Das Überraschende jedoch: Der Duftstoff der Königin besteht bei dieser #Bienenart aus einer chemisch völlig anderen Substanz als bei den #Honigbienen
(Pheromon (E)-9-Oxodec-2-ensäure („Königinnensubstanz“)) . Das deutet darauf hin, dass die #Evolution dieser Pheromone komplexer ablief als bisher gedacht.https://www.wissenschaft.de/erde-umwelt/ein-neuer-duft-fuer-die-bienenkoenigin/

Mystery #Crabronidae wasp continues to be a mystery. Rather distinctive red-black colloration; one of a kind, had never seen this species at this location.

By a sandy path along a road in High Park there's lots of these little hills, and if you wait you'll see what seem to be yellowjackets flying low around them. I thought at first they were bees like _Colletes_, but now I think they are beewolves, solitary, ground-nesting crabronid wasps in the genus _Philanthus_. They prey on bees like sweat bees (Halictidae) to provision their larvae with in the tunnels they dig.
They're shy and will duck back into their burrows when you approach, but if you wait you'll see them crawling on the ground looking for places to burrow, or backing out of their tunnels kicking sand behind them.

A true story…
so my wife recently bought some dressmaking pins… I had a look at them and I was immediately like: “I have plans for you, my beauties” 😈
Quite pleased with how I nailed this through the thorax at the first attempt. I have yet to pin it down to a species-level ID though, so if you know what it is please holler.

Liebes Fediversum, kann mir jemand sagen, ob das eine Rotpelzige Sandbiene (Andrena fulva) ist? Fotografiert in Vilseck, Bayern. Ich weiß, die Bestimmung via Foto ist schwierig, trotzdem vielen lieben Dank 😊 #biene #sandbiene #pelzbiene #hautflügler #solitärbienen #Hymenoptera #insekten #insektenbestimmung
