@hanavezzzy To be expected. Get assessed anyway :)

A unique hunting behavior in alligator snapping turtles is called “lingual luring” where the turtle will wiggle its tongue to mimic the motion of a worm in the water to attract prey! 🐛<—🐟

The Marmalade hoverflies (Episyrphus balteatus) have arrived here in the Pyrenees!! Huge numbers yesterday migrating through our pass.
We think these tiny animals journey from N Europe potentially into Africa each Autumn!

This made me laugh way harder than I expected it to

Our newest work shows how organic matter composition varies across a soil-water-continuum on Akimiski Island and what this means for metal cycling and DOM mobility.

Vaughn @Aquatichemistry had orientation today for his brand new #postdoc position at #UTSC! So naturally...

@JayFitzsy Not many people have! They are fantastic for Tabanids, it's hard to believe how many they can catch. Jars upon jars! Syrphids, less so

[Kathryn Vezsenyi @katvezz]

@JayFitzsy Thanks Jay! I've been meaning to post it on here 😅

[Kathryn Vezsenyi @katvezz]

This is the first paper to come from my thesis! Stay tuned for some northern Ontario syrphids (after I defend of course 😄)

[Sebastian Kvist @sebastian_kvist]

Stunning, inside and out. What a great piece of work. Glad to see so many familiar names, too. @ggiribet @kmkocot etc.

After 3 years of searching, I finally found the extremely rare #Asilidae Dioctria (Nannodioctria) seminole, known from just 3 specimens collected over 100 years. Previously recorded only from Florida, a new population was recently discovered in Alabama by Steve Krotzer.

#bathroommoth season has started! Many-plume moth, what a fantastic little creature. Check those plumes!

Birds, insect, isotopes, dietary quality: "At the time those collections were assembled, the technology that is being used now didn't exist," McAlpine said (@nbmmnb). "People couldn't have imagined how these specimens would be used." #MuseumCollection
