Reddit個廣東話翻譯ai強到我成日以為香港人開post

@tanto_bedbuge good fun fact

There is a thumbnail sized hole in my underwear right where my butthole is

terminally online dictyopterans when they have their first child: thats ooth 😭😭😭😭

@buranneg @MothHeaven_ the elephant hawk moth comes to mind for large European moths. There’s also the zygaenids. Try setting up light trap and get a camera for macro. You can find many species you never know about, and they don’t have to be large and charismatic to be cool.

@MothHeaven_ asia, and 2 America </3 Yeah I'm never seein that moth with my own eyes, any cool moths around Ukraine/Czechia/Poland?

they are green because they can be placed there anyways long live all green moths theres not enough of you guys

@whysper0123 gugugu-hoo 🔊🕊️🕊️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

why are non birders allowed to travel ? (my dad is in bali)

@0rthoptera I imagine they’re indestructible considering how small their wild population is F3 is nothing for most insects also

this is the 3rd generation of my colony, i wonder how immune they are to inbreeding, this species and stick bugs in general

Peruphasma nymphs are growing up

Mother’s friend came to visit, here’s how much her (whose favorite bug is millipede) daughter likes my beetles 1. Serrognathus taurus. She’s amused by the size difference 2. OSD female. Got distracted by my snake though 3.Goliath beetle female. She found it scary because it’s big

@tanto_bedbuge big fucking bug season

It’s lil dudes season

@leuvyet I really like hornets thanks

Oomf and non-oomfs, if you see this reply with a picture of your favorite insect (or other "creepy" critter) If you're someone that hates / doesn't like bugs idc, do not comment about it or I will simply block you because it's annoying when you're not required to reply lmao

@_Archesuchus_ it’s really funny how boring most male leaf-mimicking mantises look compared to females just so they can fly

Male molted too ig

My Deroplatys truncata finally molted all the way to adulthood! Check out that shield!

@drildevil @i0lanthe_ The photo seems to be a case of transverse gynandromorphism. I’m interested in the sex determination part though, where can I read about this?

@i0lanthe_ When it's knocked out apparently it produced XX males with large manibles, proving that mandible weapon differenciation is not governed by the Y chromosome in stag beetles.

@tanto_bedbuge @bucketfiiller @i0lanthe_ inclinatus lil bro

@bucketfiiller @i0lanthe_ prosopocoilus dissimilis

@maras493658 @i0lanthe_ Stop asking AI and look at the body again.

@i0lanthe_ That'a a male

@Pleuroncodes @i0lanthe_ The second and third photo anre also males. Enema pan have polymorphic males.

@i0lanthe_ Same thing here

@Bloof07024049 @i0lanthe_ It is a gynandromorph. What you’re thinking of is a specific type of gynandromorph (bilateral).

@i0lanthe_ aren't gynandromorphs split down the center so it wouldn't be one?

@thvsarts @cannibalistick9 @magicianscard Is that not Scolopendra gigantea? I swear hainanum isn’t that big.

@cannibalistick9 @magicianscard it’s a Chinese tiger leg centipede

“You’re going to get salmonella” Wrong, I am pure of heart so bacteria do not harm me

Why is that bugtwt eating everything?

Are you, are you Coming to the tree They host lanternflies They say who quickly flee

@magicianscard I think people mean they don’t like ball python breeders and their oversaturation in the hobby? No way people hate them as a species

Like i see sooooo many people just straight up say “i hate ball pythons” and it’s like ??? You hate a beautiful silly creature with boba eyes and an innocent soul? Because it’s too mainstream for you????? You sound insufferable

It makes me sad that ball pythons are looked down on in reptile keeping spheres because they’re so common. They’re such awesome creatures with hilarious personalities and just bc they’re unfortunately often improperly cared for doesn’t mean they’re less than other snakes
