Silver long-jawed orbweaver

Metellina merianae is a spider species found in Europe up to Georgia. They most commonly dwell in the entrances of caves but can also be found in burrows and hollow trees. Web structure is specific to each species. The webs of M. merianae reach up to about 100 squared cm.

Adorned with a mottled pattern that camouflages it amidst foliage and bark, eurasian armoured long-jawed spider weaves orb-shaped webs. With the arrival of autumn, it's not uncommon to witness a frenzy of mating and egg-laying, ensuring its lineage persists through their offspring, who emerge in the following spring. Their diet fluctuates from small insects during youth to larger prey as they mature, displaying their adaptability in various European habitats.

Metellina. mengei is very similar to Metellina segmentata, from which it can only be discerned by comparing genital features. It is about 5 mm long. Adults are found from May to July.

Cave spider is a true master of architectural design, crafting intricate, albeit ephemeral, silken structures to ensnare its prey. These creatures thrive in shaded, humid environments, with a particular fondness for the undersides of stones or within caves. During development, juveniles of this species subsist on smaller prey, while adults can tackle more sizable insects, ingeniously using their spun threads as both a pantry and a fortress.

Residing in the shadowy nooks of caves and crevices, meta bourneti is a master weaver of orb-shaped webs, meticulously designed for capturing prey. Its diet primarily comprises flying insects, which are lured into its sticky silk traps. Remarkably adapted to low-light environments, this creature exhibits a reduced need for vision, relying instead on the sensitive vibrations captured through its web to navigate and secure sustenance.

Meta ovalis is a species of long-jawed orb weaver in the spider family Tetragnathidae. It is found in the United States and Canada.

Adorned with cryptic coloring that merges seamlessly into its surroundings, big-bellied tylorida employs an ambush strategy, lying in wait for unsuspecting prey on its delicately spun silk. During its life cycle, it metamorphoses from a voracious, opportunistic juvenile that devours a variety of smaller arthropods into a discerning adult with a penchant for flying insects, which it catches with breathtaking precision using its intricately designed web.

Striated tylorida possesses a remarkable ability to alter its web's silk properties to react to varying prey, spinning a mix of sticky capture silk and non-sticky walking threads. This arachnid predominantly inhabits forested areas where it crafts orb-shaped webs, demonstrating nocturnal tendencies. At twilight, it often recycles its web, consuming the silk to conserve valuable proteins, and rebuilds it afresh to capture the night's unsuspecting victims.

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.
