okay I'm sorry for party Fitzsimmonsing on Beetleblr but it just hit me this scene is the exact inverse of Id Jemma cutting Fitz's heart out and telling him "you said this was mine" in Inescapable and I'm going to need to think about this for a bit

Today marks 3 months since Cayenne eclosed, so I did a little photoshoot with her! Her elytra is lookin’ pretty scratched up in her old age but she’s still as beautiful and fiesty as ever! 😍🪲🔥

Mecynorrhina torquata immaculicollis—Giant African Flower Beetle (female) 🌸🪲

Look at this little baby!!!!! This is another beetle grub, but you may notice this one is a bit different from the scarab grub I posted before (which has LEGS!). This baby looks like he’s swaddled up and wiggles around just as helplessly as if he was—this combination legless-but-with-a-distinct-head grub belongs to… a WEEVIL!!!

This is my first weevil grub! Exciting! I put him back somewhere safe, don’t worry.

2 paintings of beach-dwelling Cercyon species - ink, watercolor, gouache

I made these two paintings while I was sick with the flu and couldn’t go into the lab to work on my research project. Cercyon is a genus of Hydrophilid beetles that lives in moist material such as rotting plants, dung, and algae. I am currently studying the species that live in washed up kelp on Pacific Ocean beaches. The first painting shows adults and larvae on Fucus, Zostera, Sargassum, and two types of Ulva.
