Today's adventures bring us: a striking jumping spider Seek couldn't identify the species of, a gorgeous and very calm versute sharpshooter, one of many really tiny spiders, and small peeling puffball mushrooms :3 #bugs#bugsky#inverts#invertsky#spiders#arachnids#fungi#mushroom
awww, Sophie. “bee-stung lips” is just an expression, don’t intentionally consume insects or arachnids
Spiders are often good moms. This tiny one (she is barely 4-5mm.) was sharing a meal (a wasp or winged ant?) with her babies on the grass stem she'd bent to contain her web. Not sure which species, guessing an Araneid of some kind. I assume the well-fed youngsters will soon disperse. #arachnids 🐙🌿
Maybe this one’s a hobo? I thought it was a wolf but I know nothiiiing of arachnids. Might rescue it earlier than noon, then.
Anyone know what kind of spider this is? Observed today in northwest PA. Nice orb web. (I know it’s not an insect, but using the tag for added visibility) #insects#inverts#arachnids#spiders 🕷️
Some more spiders I met at the Jungle. 📍 Rukhad, Madhya Pradesh #Photography#Invertebrate#Arachnids 📸📸 🌿
I keep forgetting to post this persimmon miracle for my fellow Spider-fans. This is how Catholics must feel when they find the Virgin Mary in a cheese sandwich. #arachnids 🕷️🕸️🧪
🤩 If you of your kids are into spiders, these new Royal Mail stamps beautifully illustrated by the master naturalist & artist Richard Lewington show off some of our finest British arachnids. I’ve added some brief info about each one. We have around 650 spider species here. What’s your favourite? 🧵
