Red-banded fungus beetle

Within its leafy realm, four-spotted fungus beetle leads a life largely revolving around fungi, which constitutes both its home and pantry. The lustrous elytra of this insect bear four distinct spots, a natural artwork that assists in the concealment among the variegated forest floor. As it matures from larva to adult, its dietary preferences shift subtly, yet it remains a devoted mycophagist, partaking in the quiet recycling of forest nutrients.

Adorned with elongated, velvety elytra showcasing hues ranging from warm browns to vibrant reds, pleasing fungus beetle thrives in deciduous forests. As larvae, they consume fungi integral to the decay of wood, an ecological contribution that sustains forest health. Adults maintain this diet, demonstrating a rare consistency across life stages. Their conspicuous coloration is a visual feast, likely serving as a warning to would-be predators of their unpalatability.

Adorned with a contrasting palette of blues and greens on its elytra, blue fungus beetle is a visually striking insect. Its diet is uniquely specialized, primarily consisting of fungi, particularly from the polypore family, which it efficiently locates and devours, contributing to forest nutrient cycles. The iridescent hues of blue fungus beetle not only serve as a deterrent to predators due to the common association of bright colors with toxicity in the animal kingdom but also facilitate recognition and communication among its own kind.

Acropteroxys gracilis, the slender lizard beetle, is a species of Lizard Beetle in the family Erotylidae. It is found in Central America and North America, including into Canada. With a body length range of 6-12mm, it is narrower and shorter than its relative A. lecontei, the only other currently described species within this genus. It is reported to feed upon Ambrosia plant species such as the Common Ragweed. Members of this plant genus are serious agricultural pests and so this insect species has been investigated for potential use as a Biocontrol Agent. However, A. gracilis is considered an economic pest due to its activity boring into the stems of Trifolium pratense (Red Clover), Medicago sativa (Alfalfa) and Melilotus spp. (Sweet Clover) as well as a number of other plants in the Asteraceae, Poaceae and Urticaceae families.

Dacne bipustulata is a species of pleasing fungus beetles native to Europe.

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.
