It's #InsectWeek23! Did you know Ants will often consume the honeydew produced by variegated oak aphids (Lachnus roboris) and actively defend them against predators. Can you can spot any ants amongst the aphids in these pictures?

Ips typographus have a ‘elytral declivity’ at the bottom of their wing cases. They use their elytral declivity to push frass (beetle poo) out of their galleries under tree bark forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-reso… #InsectWeek23

@dr_andy_wilcox @EntoProf @HarperAdamsUni This is very sad news. Like so many others, I wouldn’t be working in entomology without Simon’s encouragement and support. He inspired so many of his students to become ecologists and entomologists. Please pass on condolences to his family.
