Watch the beautifully detailed photographies of #thrips by Manfred R. Ulitzka.
#Thysanoptera (#Paraneoptera, #Insecta) are a monophyletic group of fairly small insects (1-3 mm long), of which a considerable number of species act as plant suckers, i.e. #parasitize on #plants, with #galls also being formed in some taxa. A large number of species also feed on #fungi, often in #deadwood, and can also be facultative predators by sucking insect eggs or smaller arthropods such as #mites. Thysanoptera therefore play a role as members of the ecological community of forest floor decomposers, although there they are pests and predators and do not decompose wood themselves, but the wood-decomposing fungi.
For example, according to Hu Li et al. (2015), the Thysanoptera can be seen as #sistergroup to the #Hemiptera in the phylogenetic tree of insects. Hemiptera include, among others, plant lice, cicadas and bugs (Heteroptera). Special characters of the Thysanoptera are conspicuous #hairfringes on the #wing edges, which increase the wing area that can be used when flying. However, there are also taxa with #wingless individuals, then mostly concerning #males. Important #morphological characters of the Thysanoptera are also bladder-like #suctioncups on the tarsi of the #legs, which support the animals while climbing. In some taxa, haploid #parthenogenesis occurs, where unfertilized eggs become males. Thysanoptera are #spread primarily by #winds, sometimes over very long distances, even across oceans.

Have a great fondness for the #Leucospidae family. This species in the photos is 𝘓𝘦𝘶𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘰, and here it is in action as it is trying to #parasitize its host, #Megachile bee larva or pupa which lives inside that substrate.

I love the biological pest controls used by #entomologists to solve our insect outbreaks. This thread from @DanJohnsonAB explains mixing a concoction of fungi that #parasitize #grasshoppers and can control outbreaks! @FieldHeroes @AAFC_Canada @GlobalPulsesGPC
@APGExtension @vanbugsky @TylerWist1 @FloateKevin @APGresearch @hectorcarabido @BoydMori @MayaEvenden @Megarhyssa @SkepticAg @abfarmdawg @pkonstapel @SekulicCCC We used to grow it on sterilized barley, 50 g from a kg of barley, then dried, cleaned, extracted. We have grown it many ways, and there are mainly isolates. This is the main Canadian one that I have used. I worked with it in Africa, and also used the Australian one. ca 70% kill.
Half the country is in #PandemicDenial -- which btw is causing the pandemic.
Let's review:
1. Viruses are nonliving entities that must #parasitize a host to survive.
2. The #SARSCoV2 virus-- aka #COVID19--does not spread.
3. WE spread a virus
4. #StayTheFuckHome

O God! Your #coronavirus have been successful in destroying #communalvirus with fake news, hate & bigotry symptoms in #India & pandemic since 2014.

A final spooky story for #Halloween:
#Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus are bacterial predator that #parasitize/eat other Gram negative #bacteria. They penetrate into the periplasm of their prey and further consume their #host to replicate.

True to its common name, the caterpillars of this #moth species #parasitize planthopper #bugs, slurping up their internal fluids. Here's a cool observation of caterpillar in action, by iNat user dlbowls: https://t.co/ORmsTWay17
