He podido documentar un ejemplar del género Leptynia, comúnmente conocido como "insecto palo" en Gredos
👉Estos fásmidos son conocidos por su extraordinaria capacidad de mimetismo, lo que les permite integrarse perfectamente en el entorno vegetal como estrategia antidepredadora
👉 Además son rápidos y enfocarlos entre la vegetación es una odisea
👉 Ir observando el suelo que pisas despacio y con detalle en ocasiones regala gratas sorpresas como esta

A stick insect (probably western short-horned walkingstick, Parabacillus hesperus). I rescued it from our pool this morning.

A Stick Insect, Presbistus peleus, spotted at Dairy Farm Nature Park, Singapore, along the Wallace Trail, on 17 June 2024. Looked like a twig stuck to the leaf, but decided to have a closer look and saw what it was.
Stick Insects are, of course, a master of disguise and usually only move when necessary. So, spotting one is never easy.

My little yard has finally drained and this guy hung on through all that rain. #Phasmatodea

CW: Animal photo: striking stick insect
Great find. Note the original photo is up side down relative to yours.

Starting a new project to study #genomics of the smelly stick insect Agathemera from #Patagonia 🇦🇷,the only #Phasmatodea adapted to such extreme conditions & reaching the end of the world. Got one, not a good idea to hold it for a pic… now I stink! 😅🤢

A winter visitor, the stick insect. The elegant and discreet structure of head and eyes (you really don't want these to be obvious if you're pretending to be something with no head and no eyes) is pretty amazing.

last summer, in spain — i am not sure but it might have been a phasmatodean (gespenstschrecke). correct me if i am wrong, please! nearly perfect camouflage in the lavender bushes. #InverteFest #spectra #Phasmida #Phasmatodea. i have seen them rarely, so once again just mobile phone snapshost with many deficiencies.
