#SciArtSeptember day 29 (already?!) Theme is Tale. And this is my favorite #insect pest tale.
The Colorado potato #beetle is a pretty destructive pest against (you guessed it) potatoes! It's native to (you guessed it) Colorado!
The beetle was already widespread through Europe by the 20th century, but Germany was hit particularly hard during WWII and the USSR was hit particularly hard during the Cold War. Various pieces of propaganda from the time warn of the "Amikäfer" - American beetle - being dropped from the sky by American balloons and planes. In response to the accusations, West Germany airdropped little cardboard cutouts of the Colorado potato beetle, each stamped with "F" for "Freiheit" (freedom).








Even the bugs are enjoying the last warm rays of sunshine.

Rove beetle in the genus Homaeotarsus. Found inches away from the mystery pupa I posted yesterday so perhaps they are the same species. I love how uniformly punctate it is. Media, PA, USA. #beetle #coleoptera #entomology #staphylinidae #RoveBeetle #nature #insects

@dave_heumann @mxtthxw It was busy munching the native lady bugs. This one is an invader in Europe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonia_axyridis#Worldwide_propagation
And yes, they stink.

Platydracus maculosus (Staphylinidae) in a defensive posture, ready to coat me with irritating secretions from glands at the tip of its abdomen. You can find them eating fly larvae at cadavers and cow patties. In flight they do a rather good job mimicking spider wasps (blue wings, jerky movement). #RoveBeetle #insect #nature #beetle #coleoptera #entomology

This tiny rove beetle gave me such an arrogant, threatening look that I said to it, "Well, aren't *you* just the Lord of the Mushrooms today!?" Later, after uploading the pic onto #iNaturalist, some expert informed me that it's in the genus Lordithon. #RoveBeetle #staphylinidae #mushrooms #fungi #insect #entomology #nature #beetle #coleoptera
#EVs are a hot topic in #auspol, but something people never seem to mention is what would happen if #Australia becomes an ICE island wedded to a legacy technology. A comparable analog might be the #VW #Beetle in #Mexico - the original air cooled design was produced until 2003. Here in AU we may continue to get cars into the 2050s that are the equivalent of the 2003 Air Cooled Beetle - with further ICE development having been stopped by the major car producers. (1/2)

When I was in Japan I picked up this absurdly expensive fully poseable Giraffe Stag Beetle toy, which came in a fancy box and detailed explanation of its origins, the modeller's bio, etc etc. I love it so much. I just wish it was one of the Japanese beetles I used to raise, a kabuto or o-kuwagata maybe.
Still. Fucking look at it. 😊
Made by Kaiyodo, Revoltech offshoot called RevoGeo that specialises in accurate models.
It's so fucking cool. 😊

🇦🇹 Gestern beim Wandern auf der Hohen Wand hab ich einen Lederlaufkäfer gesehen. Das ist ein ziemlich großer Käfer - fast 4cm lang.

Beetle (Pimelia Punctata) investigates the inside of the shell of a myriapod to see if there is anything edible left. Although they are common in my garden (Alicante province, Spain) I have only found out that they are also distributed in Italy, France, Austria and Belgium, and that the species of the genus Pimelia are threatened mainly by habitat loss.

Aunque son habituales en mi jardín (provincia de Alicante) sólo he averiguado que también se distribuye por Italia, Francia, Austria y Bélgica, y que las especies del género Pimelia se encuentran amenazadas principalmente por la pérdida de hábitat.
Käfer (Pimelia Punctata) untersucht das Innere der Schale eines Myriapoden, um zu sehen, ob noch etwas Essbares vorhanden ist. Obwohl sie in meinem Garten (Provinz Alicante, Spanien) häufig vorkommen, habe ich erst jetzt herausgefunden, dass sie auch in Italien, Frankreich, Österreich und Belgien verbreitet sind und dass die Arten der Gattung Pimelia vor allem durch den Verlust ihres Lebensraums bedroht sind.

Another artfight drawing! this time for @itsAeth , who was great characters (specially if you like dragons or scales), and received less artwork than they did!
Very fun to do the unusual textures and colors on their characters, do check them out and make something for them!

Seven-spotted lady beetle
(Coccinella septempunctata) eating an aphid. I was struck by how unconcerned the nearby aphids seemed, especially because they are supposed to emit and perceive an alarm pheromone. Maybe it takes them a few seconds to back their stylets out of the stem. #LadyBeetle #LadyBug #coccinellidae #beetle #coleoptera #aphids #insect #entomology #nature
Look at this amazing friend I found this morning, outside my front door. It's about 3 cm long, about twice the size of the only other antelope beetle I've seen here in Montreal. I hope it enjoys living in my garden with all the other insects (I have quite a variety 😀 ) #beetle

Huge dopamine hit when several people on iNaturalist identified the California night-stalking tiger beetle (Omus californicus), which by the way is a great name. I spent 15 minutes trying to ID it before I gave up. So. Many. Beetle. Species.

I also found this good avocado friend!!! No idea exactly what species it is, but it's probably some sort of leaf beetle.
Here's the whole beetle. It's Colaspidea smaragdula, if I'm not mistaken. #Entomology #Photography #InsectPhotography #Coleoptera #Beetle #Chrysomelidae
Pretty decent photo of a beetle's visage, if I do say so myself. #Entomology #Photography #InsectPhotography #Coleoptera #Beetle
So it seems a mild swarm of soldier beetles has descended on this house. Turns out they're pretty chill and just go around pollinating stuff.
But for a few moments before I was able to ID them (Thanks to the Picture Insect app on #iOS) it's fair to say I was freaking the hell out.
Living in the countryside got me out here taking photos of all kinds of bugs - this is way better than Pokémon! I’m up to 36 collected ☺️

Its colours remind me of a blue and red harlequin bug, but its body shape and the fact it has wings reminds me more of a cicada. Any ideas?

Finally taking off into a nice #Weekend. 🪲🐞🤣
Discoveries are everywhere. I was at a beach with friends on the weekend, and rolled a log (as I do), found and photographed a beetle (as I do), and uploaded to #iNaturalist (as I do).
It's the second #iNaturalistNZ observation of its species, and 7th globally.
This is how knowledge about nature gets built: people sharing interesting things they find. In the old days it was employed/wealthy collectors. Now it can be everyone with a smart phone.
Apologies for the somewhat mediocre photos this week; I can't seem to achieve decent lighting or focus for some reason. Anyway, here's a real weird one: the face of a scarab beetle, Cremastocheilus angularis. #Insect #Entomology #Photography #InsectPhotography #Beetle #Coleoptera
