Spottings

Interrupted Spider Wasp favorited by Francis Floe Tallahassee, Florida, United States 33 minutes ago

This wasp mimics paper wasps of the genus Polistes. It is carrying a Golden Silk Spider, Trichoniphila clavipes. The same species of spider shown in the link. When I saw this wasp I thought it was a member of the Polistes colony that was above my head. I thought how is this wasp going to get this large prey up to that nest . I also couldn't recall Polistes preying on spiders. It couldn't be Polistes but it looked exactly like the wasps above.

Found on the trunk of a dead tree.

Common Evening Brown favorited by Francis Floe Palauig, Central Luzon, Philippines 33 minutes ago

Nymphalidae; Satyrinae; Melanitis leda leda Linnaeus, 1758. The first photo shows a Common Evening Brown sitting at the entrance to a rice field. The other three photos were taken of another specimen of the same species in the rice field, just two or three yards from the first. I put them together in one spotting because the first picture gives a reasonably good representation of the species and the others (taken where a direct view was impossible) show how a different perspective can change the outline shape considerably.

A Batesian mimic of the Pipevine Swallowtail.

Gilled Mushroom favorited by Francis Floe Tallahassee, Florida, United States 34 minutes ago
