@buggotime submitted: I rediscovered this photo of this lil' guy curled around some grass from several months ago in [removed] (please remove location, thank you!) I've never seen this kind around before, do you know what species it is? (sorry if the photo quality isn't good enough for an ID!)

Without a better photo I can't say for sure but I would think either an American dagger moth or a Virginian tiger moth. Both are yellow and fuzzy with small differences a clearer photo would help distinguish.

@lavendertownsghost submitted: (I’m hoping both photos were added)

I found a cluster of these guys on my porch in South Florida, I’m hoping for at least a vague ID, I get that it’s pretty difficult since they’re so small and probably newly hatched. I’m guessing some sort of weevil?

Weevils hatch as worm-like larvae! Only one photo came through, but these little fellas are stink bug nymphs. Possibly giant strong-nosed stink bugs, Alcaeorrhynchus grandis. That species is a type of predatory stink bug.

@llamatheist submitted: Spider showdown going on in my backyard. The far brown one is a Plexippoides flavescens, but not sure about the newcomer!

Maybe they just really want to hug each other :)

FYI - your bug art can be submitted as long as it belongs to you, but AI generated "art" is not welcome.

Thank you to those who politely pointed out the submission from earlier was AI. If you're rude about it, I will block you.

@namae-s submitted: recently saw this beautiful fella while on a walk and can i just say. seeing those wings made my day! they look like stained glass (location is lower silesia, poland)

Ohhhh they really do look like stained glass. Pretty :) This friend is a male crane fly in the genus Tipula, maybe Tipula vittata based on those wings!
