Eutomostethus ephippium is a species of common sawfly in the family Tenthredinidae.
Adorning streamlined bodies with predominant greenish hues, willow Gall Sawfly are arboreal craftsmen, expertly manipulating the leaves of their preferred willow hosts to form sheltered enclaves. As larvae, they exhibit herbivorous tendencies, selectively devouring the foliage which serves as both sustenance and sanctuary, while the adults are known for their brief, pollen-powered flights, playing unwitting roles in the pollination of their arboreal habitats.
Pontania californica, generally known as the willow apple gall sawfly, is a species of common sawfly in the family Tenthredinidae.
Selandria serva is a Palearctic species of sawfly.
The impressively adaptive butternut Woollyworm is renowned for its extraordinary metamorphosis process. As a leaf miner in its early larval stage, it significantly controls the population of certain tree species by harvesting their leaves. As the larvae mature, they acquire a different role, acting as a defense controller by discouraging potential predators through the release of an unpleasant odor. Displaying diversity of function in their lifespan, butternut Woollyworm embarks on a journey impacting both flora and fauna in its environment, contributing uniquely to ecosystem dynamics.
The adults grow up to 8–11 millimetres (0.31–0.43 in) long. These quite large sawflies have a lemon-yellow abdomen with black markings. This species is very similar to Tenthredo arcuata and Tenthredo brevicornis.
Recognized by its striking coloration and patterns, figwort Sawfly flaunts a vibrant mosaic that serves as a visual deterrent to predators. Resilient through metamorphosis, juveniles differ from adults, initially consuming foliage voraciously as larvae before transitioning to a varied diet including nectar and pollen. This species plays a subtle yet pivotal role in the ecosystem, acting as both a plant consumer and a pollinator, intricately woven into the floral tapestry of its habitat.
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.
