oh, we can submit lichen pics? here is a beautiful platismatia glauca from when i lived in oregon!

Platismatia glauca is gorgeous, but it regularly tricks me into thinking it is something new and interesting by being variable in size, shape, and color. So I will collect it and get myself all excited and then . . . P. glauca AGAIN.

The amount of times Ive rewatched Kingsglaive is unhealthy and I need to be heavily sedated... or put in therapy.

Anatomy Practice 5/?: Hemiptera

Hemipterans, known as the 'true bugs', are defined by their mouthparts which are adapted to pierce things, usually plants which they feed upon the saps and juices of though some species are carnivorous or omnivorous and open to munching meat. These mouthparts can provide a hefty nip for humans poking at them, but most aren't usually a danger.

Other characteristics they tend to have (not required), are 6 legs, two pairs of wings (may be a wing/elytra combo), and a fairly compact body plan with little obvious segmentation between the abdomen, thorax, and head region. If its got six legs and has something or other on its back, it's probably some kind of Hemipteran.

Probably....

Most Hemipterans live a terrestrial life but some (such as the Water Boatman depicted above) are adapted for life in the water and have to evolve interesting methods of locomotion and respiratory control. The Water Boatman for example, swims on its back to navigate water with its abdomen to the air in order to breathe while swimming around and looking for prey with their large eyes.

Most Hemipterans grow through nymph stages, starting off as lookalikes of their adult selves. This is called being Hemimetabolous, and they are in fact the largest order of named hemimetabolous insects with over 80,000 species known!

A Shower Of Gold

Galphimia glauca giving the botanic gardens a shower-of-gold look after the rain. Photo credit: Jonathan Chua.

The depth-of-field seemed a little thin despite the aperture being set at f/8. Perhaps I was a little too close to the flowers and the background clusters were also some way off.

This one's done, and the blue shark was funded about the time I finished it, so I guess I'll do a goblin shark next to see if the good juju continues~
