The Giant #Anteater looks like a Surrealist artist’s fever dream, but they are actually real and feature an ultra long tongue for suctioning #insects from #nests in #Brazil🇧🇷 Help them to survive when u #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife 😍 in supermarkets https://wp.me/pcFhgU-1Cd?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=Palm+Oil+Detectives&utm_campaign=publer

An Azteca ant inside her brood nest in a hollow Cecropia tree stem. What she is holding is not an egg or a larva (those are the lumpy things with the interior dark patch) but a food body produced by the tree specifically to feed the ants, as they protect the tree from caterpillars. Colombia. #Ants #Azteca #Ecology #Evolution #Cecropia #Insects

it's #WeevilWednesday 😍 post 'em if you got 'em :3 Variabler Plumprüssler Liophloeus tessulatus https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/W%C3%BCrfelfleckiger_Staubr%C3%BCssler gleich 2 bilder, auf dass klar werde warum der 'variabler' mit vornamen heißt. eigentlich klingt ja das 'würfelfleckiger staubrüssler', wie wikipedia den nennt, sowieso netter. #insekten #insects #weevil #rüsselkäfer #krabbeltierchen #BugOfTheDay #nature #biodiversity #entomology

@wplalonde@lgbtqia.space Look what I found! But our bark beetles (I presume) aren't as accomplished at drawing as yours. #nature #insects #entomology

extreme nahaufnahme eines himbeerkäfers :3 ob das jetzt ein Großäugiger Himbeerkäfer Byturus ochraceus oder ein Kleinäugiger Himbeerkäfer Byturus tomentosus ist, ist kaum zu sagen und am ende ja auch ziemlich egal, niedlich ist er allemal. die larven, die man so oft als "wurm" in himbeeren findet schon etwas weniger ^^ #insekten #insects #kaefer #krabbeltierchen #BugOfTheDay #macro #nature #biodiversity #entomology

#Palmoil 🪔 #soy #meat 🥩 and #cocoa 🍫 #agriculture along with #climatechange and #habitatloss in rainforests is driving #insects to the edge of #extinction.

Three #photos today. Saw this pipevine #swallowtail flittering around the backyard and eventually it zeroed in on the #pipevine I planted earlier this spring just for this species (its host plant). Captured it alighting on it then depositing a clutch of #eggs. #photography #butterfly #ButterflyPhotography #insects #InsectPhotography #MacroPhotography #BackyardWildlife #nature #gardening

'Optische Täuschung' #FotoVorschlag tarnung ist ja an sich eine form der täuschung, oft eine optische. und hier fühlt es sich beim betrachten auch wie eine an, hirnverzwirbelnd Marmorierte Baumwanze Halyomorpha halys https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmorierte_Baumwanze #insekten #insects #BugOfTheDay #bugstodon #krabbeltierchen #wanze #tarnung #camouflage #nature #biodiversity #entomology

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 313 Glyphosate Based Herbicides (GBH) are the most widely used #pesticides globally. Increased use of genetically engineered glyphosate-tolerant crops which allow GBH application throughout the growing season hugely increases GBH exposure with severe consequences for #bees and ecosystems. #food #nature #insects #science #education #biodiversity #environment #worldbeesanctuary #vegan

If you want to identify insects / reptiles I recommend Seek over Picture Insect app because, excuse me this Emerald Swift lizard is not a White-banded fishing spider. 😜 #insects #reptiles

A female Sonoran blue posed for the camera. This exquisite butterfly brings the the color of the sky to earth, complete with fiery orange sun spots. Bay Area lepidopterist Liam O’Brien calls their color “electric blue tinfoil.” "A lovely little insect" is how Holland described the Sonoran blue in his 1898 The Butterfly Book. @bethpratt #butterflies #globalmuseum #insects

I noticed around twenty years ago that insects in Europe were in serious decline. It didn’t even need a ‘scientific study’ and I use the same methodology today. In the 1980s, in summer, when I drove in Europe, the windscreen of my car was covered in dead insects after only 100km of driving. By the early 2000s this was no longer true. Many fewer bug-splats on the glass. Now? Hardly any at all. You cannot blame Climate Change for this. This is down to excessive pesticides and farming techniques. Now studies show bird populations in serious decline. Ever wonder what they used to eat? We learnt nothing from the DDT fiasco, apparently. #insects #flies #driving #Climate #ClimateChange #pesticides #farming #environment #Birds #bioaccumulation #systemcollapse
