I just learned the #savage garden hashtag, but also look at #CarnivorousPlants #sarracenia #InsectivorousPlants and another one I sometimes see is #BogPlants
So after that hashtag assortment I feel duty bound to post a picture so no one feels cheated.
Sarracenia plants in the last cold spell we had late winter
Since I am playing around with the #microscope and got bitten by a #tick today I just had to investigate further. If you ever wondered what's in the face of a tick (called the hypostome) and getting under your skin, here my picture I took today.

How does a mosquito hear? Do mosquitoes communicate with sounds? How far can a mosquito hear? Could it be used for designing sound traps ?
Here is a literature review on the role of hearing in mosquito behaviour (PDF https://hal.science/hal-04116063/document/), from the book 'Sensory ecology of disease vectors' (https://doi.org/10.3920/978-90-8686-932-9)

Today at the Lice Conference #ICP7 I learned elephant lice are super weird looking. https://phthiraptera.myspecies.info/taxonomy/term/16911/media
Wood mimic moths! Two wood mimics came to the trap last night. The very impressive birch twig mimic BUFF TIP and the bark mimic that is the FLAME.

这图在🐘上被聊,联系最近的王毅的战狼种族主义,个人想聊的还稍微多点,包括人类学考古和政治,这里面包含个人阅读的理解,但不完全来自书
中国坚持人类多地起源说不是一天两天了,目前在中国自己学术圈也是绝对的少数,主要是北古所(也就是研究发现北京人的主要单位)的吴新智(已故),高星等人还在坚持,证据就是铲型门齿和一些石器证据,而中国的文化考古证据也确实多(废话有政治力量支持能不多),在外国这个研究早已属于小众,但是在中国这还是一个系统的主要饭碗,而另外一方面以谈家桢弟子那一支下来的遗传学派系如李辉,金力那些人肯定都是支持分子人类学的非洲独立起源说的,证据就是mtDNA(母系)和Y-DNA(父系)和世界其他地方人都是一个来源,甚至在生物多样性方面中国反而还不如世界其他地方,因为中国没有公认的和智人有过交流的尼安德特人和丹尼索瓦人,而欧洲人和亚洲其他一些地方就有,这个就挺尴尬的,比较讽刺的是藏族人倒是有一点丹尼索瓦人基因,所以其实西藏说自己是独立起源都比汉人靠谱很多,但是这点还不太敢宣传,那样西藏就更有理由宣扬民族主义和独立意识了
@DarthCook 还是早晚要搞 中华正统在澄江 全世界脊椎动物不要忘了你们的根
(但是我们云南这种偏山野水领导们大概看不上
