@anh_bugs Wayyyyy late to this but I asked @milipedassassin who knows coreids well and he confirms this is one and something in tribe Dasynini or Homoeocerini. Hope that's helpful!

#Entomologists of twitter, recognize this species? I'm chatting with a young pre-scientists in the Philippines and she really stumped me with this!
I THINK it is a Coreidae, but I could be very wrong. Odd thing, found on a neem tree.

@EntoSpring Looks like @sinobug was on the right track and they are a whole lot of chalcidoid wasp pupae probably from a caterpillar that is since gone.

@BioInFocus @EntoSpring Hmmm I have no idea.....if they are are not moving at all they are probably not Heteroptera. Some of them seem to have flocculence too? Agreed probably some hemipteran though...I asked Doug Yanega...I'll see what he says.

@EntoSpring They're some kind of communal Heteroptera I think. @EricRLGordon, ideas?

@symPiotr @mcsymbiont @CicadaScience @u_matsuura Congratulations!!!! I wonder if they read the sections in both languages or not haha

I have just been awarded habilitation - a formal Polish recognition of an independent researcher status, a bit of a tenure equivalent - for my research on symbioses of cicadas! Huge thanks to @mcsymbiont, @CicadaScience, @u_matsuura, and other colleagues!

Excited to share our latest work! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
Shotgun metagenomics reveals that the gut microbiota of two closely related honey bee species vastly differs at the strain-level. A. mellifera harbors many more strains & functional genes in its microbiota than A. cerana!
