tiny Tussock Moth Caterpillar!

[seashellcosmos]

You mentioned it before so now I must know: Which bug has Gonta assigned each of his friends to and for what reason?

OKAY HERE WE GO BABY

Shuichi- blue noctuid moth! Shuichi has big moth vibes, and (according to research the author has done) this moth is sometimes associated with death :) but it is very pretty

Kirumi- orb weaver spider! Spiders are arachnids, not insects, but Gonta still likes them- and orb weavers are very delicate and organized spiders, often observed tearing down and rebuilding their web daily (i have seen this with my own eyes it rocks)

Korekiyo- praying mantis! Tall and thin, can come across as unsettling, but is sorta just minding its own business. Stares at you for too long.

Himiko- ladybug! Small and cute and round, with a similar color scheme and habit of just hanging out wherever they feel like. Also fall asleep like…. As soon as they are somewhere cold or dark. Which is endearing

Ryoma- June Bug! (June beetle) a small, round, endearing beetle in the scarab family. Are very small and resilient (despite their clumsy and self destructive flight patterns)often used to symbolize transformation? Apparently? Christmas beetle would also work for him tbh.

Kaito- firefly! (Lightning bug, fire bug, etc) while not as flashy as Kaito tends to be at first glance, these little show stoppers quite literally light up the night sky like little stars in lonely rural eras

Angie- painted lady butterfly! Maybe a little obvious, but this tiny butterfly has splattered oranges and white and black across its wings to make a vibrant pattern! They also fly around very excitedly, and are attracted to bright colored flowers like echinacea or sunflowers

Rantaro- Atlas Moth! A large, striking moth found in many parts of Asia, with beautiful eye markings and wings that bare a strange resemblance to cobra heads as well. Often used to symbolize travel and wandering

Miu- primrose moth! partially for her signature pink and yellow color scheme, partially for their pickiness when it comes to host plants, and partially because these little critters are often active day and night once they pupate and reach adulthood.

Kiibo- Pill bug! (Rolly Polly, Armadillo Bug, etc) a tiny isopod that’s more related to shrimp and crustaceans than true insects, with slate gray armored backs they have a tendency to hide behind if startled

Kokichi- Emperor Moth Caterpillar (and the moth itself) a very flashy little creature with eye designs and frills along its body to trick predators, known for that one metaphor that symbolizes life’s struggles

Kaede- Monarch Butterfly! A delicate but incredibly resilient butterfly with very vibrant colors!! Often used to symbolize strength and endurance

Tenko- Grasshopper! A high energy insect found all over the world, known for their high jumps and cute little chirps

Maki- Glasswing Butterfly! Small, delicate butterflies with translucent wings they used to blend in with their surroundings. Pollinate and lay their eggs on plants in the poisonous nightshade family

Tsumugi- Leaf Cutter Bee! While a little more plain looking than other bee species (heh heh) these bees are very unique! They cut parts of leaves to make their home, stitching together little nests for winter.

Gonta sees himself as a rhino beetle, big and silly and strong enough to protect his friends!!

Saw some ants walking on my balcony so I decided to gift them some cookie crumbs. They’re inspecting them now.

We're on vacation and I'm on the lookout for bugs. I'm pretty sure this is a garden tiger moth larvae.

Top five critters, creatures, beasties, if you will

👀 critters, creatures, and beasties?

1. The Vinegaroon- I had one for close to four years and I loved him so much! His name was Gabriel! Look at them! They're so cute!!! If a little smelly!

2. Camel Spider- Look at those chompers! Mean as hell, but God they're so cute! I love their disproportionate legs!

3. Jerusalem Cricket- Not a cricket, Not from Jerusalem! They're actually a potato bug from America! They were actually featured in the 1931 Dracula movie as well!

4. Ogre-Faced Spider- Look at those eyes! Look at that pose! Look at them! Their so fucking cute!

5. Giant Isopod- Big chunk boy! I love these things so much! Like, their heads are empty! So cute!

You will never catch me hating any creature, even parasites n such. They're just doing what they do to survive :)

you guys Need to start seeing bugs as animals im not even joking anymore. the second u start seeing them as tiny animals the more your world opens up and the more you accept different types of life Into that world. youll begin accepting that even life you cant understand is still worth living. and itll legitimately make you a better person. fuck

buckle up lads we're going BACK INTO THE BOOK

I saw a species of blister beetle the other day that's really cool cos it has this chemical ( catharidin ) it releases when threatened that - yes - will cause a potentially painful blister. BUT here's the cool part: it won't affect the basal layer of skin cells when it blisters meaning it usually leaves no scarring at all!

They sell catharidin as a wart treatment for this reason. It will remove a wart without leaving a scar ✨ all from a wittle 'ol beetle u can find in the backyard. I think, it's pretty neato

i care btw. i care abt the song ur listening to or the bug u saw or how u just got outta the shower or how ur happily hanging out w ur friends or how ur kinda sad or how good was the meal u just had or ur fav character from an indie game nobody knows or if u chugged down some water. i always will

This science and aesthetic blog is full of bugs. This is a feature and not a bug.
