Not a lot at the moth light last night but this handsome Herald (Scoliopteryx libatrix) made a welcome appearance. #MothsMatter Having slept through the Winter I’m sure it is as glad to see the arrival of #spring as we are 🌱

I've always wanted to photograph both the male and female adult Metallyticus splendidus in the wild. With some luck, I saw this pair in the same area as where I spotted my first nymph of this species over 10 years ago. L: Female R: Male
These flies are over 350 years old! Collected by Leonard Plukenet, Queen Mary II's gardener, in the 17th century! All perfectly 2 dimensional. @NHM_London @flygirlNHM
Two more full grown Red Admiral caterpillars, this time by a garage wall near Swanage. I guess they will emerge early May to join any overwintering adults and migrants. More evidence of successful overwintering. @RichardFoxBC @BC_Dorset @savebutterflies
@DrewCooper_Wild @BBCSpringwatch @Team4Nature Red Admiral clearly overwintering here in good numbers now. Peacocks in my shed are still snoozing!
Tiger beetle larva stationed at the entrance of its burrow. They have numerous hooks on their body that prevents them from being tugged out and they have all the means to pull their prey in.
Tapponia is a genus of tiny metallic lynx spiders. They are often dismissed due to their small size, but look at the colours on their faces!
One of the most beautiful fairy moths that I've ever seen, with thick blue scales on its legs and bushy antennae. Kedah, Malaysia
Female and male Arkys alatus (Winged Arkys)- Woy Woy Bay NSW Australia
Liphistius desultor Schiødte, 1849 is a segmented trapdoor spider from Penang, Malaysia. It has been on my wish list ever since I shot my first Liphistius 12 years ago. EM10m4, Laowa 50mm, dual Raynox, 2.1mm cctv fisheye, single flash diffused. [1/3]
Mind blown today. Stumbled across this Pom-Pom Prominent today at Mt Kinabalu (on the way to rescue an Atlas moth!) and was gob-smacked by this remarkable deimatic behaviour as I bent down to pick it up. Never seen any threat display like it from a moth #MothsMatter
It's finally out! "Fatal Attraction: Argiope Spiders Lure Male Hemileuca Moth Prey with the Promise of Sex": Website: mdpi.com/2075-4450/15/1… PDF Version: mdpi.com/2075-4450/15/1…
This is just the 28th record of American Painted Lady and the 3rd for St Mary's. What a find! You can find more information on sightings in: butterflyrarities.com
Walking towards Penninis Head, St Mary’s and met Steve Holloway who was watching this butterfly which was a remarkable colour, though resembling Painted Lady it was clearly different. Fortunately managed some quick photos before in moved on. #American Painted Lady. Nice one Steve
