Hemipenthes celeris is a fly species from the family of the wool gliders (Bombyliidae). The scientific name of the species was first validly published in 1828 by Wiedemann.
Black banded bee fly, a member of Order Diptera, flaunts a velvet-like cloak of dense pile, which especially adorns the thorax. Adults visit flowers for nectar, elegantly hovering and darting with precision, akin to their aviation kin. The larvae lead a markedly different existence, dwelling within the nests of solitary bees, wherein their early life is spent as cleptoparasites, surreptitiously consuming the provisions stored by their unwitting hosts.
Adorned with a dense covering of fur-like setae, hemipenthes maura exhibits a striking mimicry of bees, complete with an elongated proboscis suited for reaching the nectar within tubular blossoms. In early development, its larvae are parasitic, often found within the egg cases of grasshoppers, evolving into adults that serve as important pollinators in diverse ecosystems.
Poecilanthrax lucifer is a species of bee flies (insects in the family Bombyliidae).
Poecilanthrax arethusa is a fly species from the family of the wool gliders (Bombyliidae). The scientific name of the species was first validly published in 1886 by Osten Sacken.
Sparnopolius confusus is a species of bee flies, insects in the family Bombyliidae. It measures 6-9 mm. It is found in most of the United States and in part of Mexico. It isknown to be a parasitoid of June beetles, Phyllophaga
Western honey bee（Apis mellifera） is the most common species of honeybee in the world. Among the first domesticated insects, its cultural and economic impact on humanity has been vast and far-reaching, providing honey, wax and its services as a pollinator. Western honey bee faces challenges worldwide, such as colony collapse disorder, and populations are thought to be decreasing.
The monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) is the most recognizable butterfly in North America. It is best known for its appearance, but should be better known for the fact that it has a 3000-mile migration that takes the butterfly 4 generations to complete. Their diet is also a natural deterrent for predators, as they eat milkweed, a poison that induces vomiting.
The japanese rhinoceros beetle (Trypoxylus dichotomus) is a massive beetle about the size of the palm of a hand. It's distinguished by its long Y-shaped horn, which it uses to fight other males with. It's a nocturnal bug that feeds on sap and sweet fruits. This species is sometimes kept as a pet due to its unique appearance and simple care requirements.
The silken threads produced by silkworm during its larval stage have been highly coveted for millennia, manifesting as a luxurious fabric in human society. Remarkably, this creature has a singular diet, feeding exclusively on the leaves of its primary host plant from which it extracts the necessary nutrients to facilitate its transition into a non-feeding, winged adult.
Menelaus blue morpho (Morpho menelaus) is a gorgeous butterfly with large, royal blue wings. Linnaeus named the genus Morpho the Aphrodite-Ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty for its extreme beauty. It is native to tropical rainforests. Though many butterfly gardens now cultivate them in captivity, there are still many people who never get a chance to see them.
While the atlas moth (Attacus atlas) can't tell you where to find your country on the map, it does earn its name through other means. It is one of the largest moths in the world, with a wingspan that is far larger than its body, creating an abnormal comparison. In India, their silk is gathered in a non-commercial capacity and is considered to be more durable than the domestic silkworm.
Both sexes reach about 5 mm in body length. Females and immatures of both sexes are brown but have color patterns by which they can be distinguished from related species. Also, the males dance to attract females.
Often confused for the ladybug, multicolored asian ladybeetle (Harmonia axyridis) is a separate species that, unlike the ladybug, is a household pest. It is considered particularly annoying for its habit of returning to places from which it is removed. One of the most variable species in the world, there are many different colors and patterns multicolored asian ladybeetle may display, making identification potentially difficult.
