한지실 • 🇰🇷🇺🇲 • any pronouns phd student studying insect migration. accessioned and catalogued in a museum near you! dubbed expert bug surgeon by america's top entomologists. makes art sometimes :> 한국말 배우고 있습니다! (personal account! expect unscientific nonsense)
sighs. does anyone know what this wasp is. found parasitizing a chilocorus larva in the midwest. there were larval mummies with exit holes all over this tree
have you read our wikipedia page? it feels kind of magical to read about your own lived experiences so painstakingly cataloged alongside those of billions of strangers and the dead. i live and study and can be studied and love and am loved en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human
our lab is taking on a high school student for a couple weeks and they don't know what taxonomy is yet so now i'm preparing this
sehirus cinctus, white-margined burying bug. check out those combs on the forelegs
so i did not know burying bugs (cydnidae) could. stridulate? it's really loud tbh. max your volume but beware there's also a roaring ac the whole time
this is the fucking pinnacle of technology. we do not need to advance any further
also i found my first mydas fly today!!!!!!!!!!!! my advisor told me the larvae prey on other insects that eat dead wood :3 makes sense because i caught this at the local park that just laid out a bunch of logs
showing one of the lab roaches things she's never seen before
unfortunately this lacewing died as a pupa. its body is rotten and brown now but it's kind of eerie how the eye stays this iridescent green and red, it's like a stone statue with bejeweled eyes
gonna be real. i sobbed upon entering this exhibit. imagine your two lifelong obsessions that both sparked your career did a crossover that would make infinity war look like weenie hut jr
holy f i popped off with this person's guilty gear oc i hope i captured her properly
yesterday i drew a cute bug pokemon trainer and his volcarona. more happy with how the volcarona turned out. drawing this made me wish i could cuddle a moth
lol finally made a more finalized obligatory bugsona :3 i tried to be as anatomically correct about the limbs as possible while maintaining a humanoid form by subtracting the first pair of legs and pushing the rest out to the sides protohermes xanthodes #sciart #invertebrates
