Sign In to followIt has been a long time. I'm happy to be active again! Thank you for adding this beauty to the mission.
Beautiful Planthopper! This would be a great spotting for The Hoppers mission at: https://www.projectnoah.org/missions/809...
Thank you Lauren. It is such an odd place for the coloring but it definitely caught my eye when looking at this plant.
Thank you Neil and Lauren! These Weevils are quite comical looking. It's hard to imagine the females using the long beak to bore into hard nuts and acorns.
Lauren, I never thought to add the taxonomy names to the tags. I really appreciate the suggestion! I'll definitely start adding them.
It is! Thank you for the comment, Dawn.
Thank you again!!! I'm so glad I've been able to submit worthy spottings!
Thank you Ranger team for the nomination!!!
Hi Brian, I think they are too! :-)
Thank you as always! It sure does seem to be I. brachycera, even down to the habitat. I'll also reach out to Michael :-)
Thank you Lauren! I was so happy I could help. We enjoyed seeing this snake periodically through that summer but haven't seen it since.
I'm glad you like the flies! They're so underappreciated :-)
