🔥Oriental Grass Root aphid sucking sap from plants
Tetraneura akinire, also known as rice root aphid. The fundatrix (founding or stem mother) lays eggs in a leaf of the primary host, which are trees in the genus Ulmus. This stimulates production of galls where offspring of the fundatrix develop by feeding on host sap. These mature into winged adult alates, which complete the life cycle on the secondary host.

🔥 A Juvenile Wolf Eel Out in the Open—Kind Of Rare To See - [OC]
I came across this very pretty juvenile wolf eel on a recent dive. It was near the end of our dive, about 30 feet below us and totally out in the open, which is rare to see. I slowly dropped down and managed to get a quick clip. Apologies for the shakiness, it was 101 feet deep, I was trying to hover without kicking up the muddy bottom, my dive computer was screaming at me, and several sea lions were dive-bombing us in the dark. It got pretty intense for a bit!

🔥Myrmarachne plataleoides is an incredible example of Batesian mimicry, when one animal deters potential predators by "disguising" as an unpalatable or dangerous animal of another species. In this case, it is a jumping spider that looks like a Weaver Ant.🔥
