This is an expansion on the previous ecosystem introduced with Grananty and Eeriedescents evolution line!

OOOHHHH BOY HAVE I BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO POST THIS ONE - I got inspired to design this line after accidentally abducting a heard of black aphids on a single strand of currants I was harvesting. The single ant that was looking after its pets ran in a panic back from my hand to her herd on the strand and back again, not knowing what to do. I laid the currant strand back in the bush to leave the poor farmer and her cattle in peace :'D

And while I was doing some research to properly design this line, I learned that aphids develop wings when they need to branch out to new food sources and that ants actively CUT their wings to prevent them from FLEEING. And that some ants (at least the species I had looked up) develop a chemical substance that ejects from their feet when stepping on their Aphids - A chemical that prevents the aphid from ever developing wings in the FIRST place.

MAN ANTS ARE SO FUCKED UP AND SO MUCH LIKE US IT'S INSANE

Erifae is based on a different family of aphids by the way: The WOOLLY Aphids. I have seen one only ONCE in my life and they literally look like the tiniest of fairies - A look on google is definitely worth your time :D

@thejameison submitted: Saw this tiny little fairy floating through the air in Central Ohio. I thought it was a cotton wood seed at first but it has tiny little translucent wings. I made a wish and let it go just in case it's not a bug.

That's a piece of lint. Hope this helps.

Just kidding it's a woolly aphid! Or a fairy. You decide.

Trainee Aphid

Scared little boy... Save him.

Character Bio:

Kinship: The Hawthorns

Gay; tom; he/him

Age: 9 moons; 13 Hyrs

Voice Headcanon: Callum - The Dragon Prince

Future Title meaning: -eye = a cat with especially good eyesight; this cat can spot things that others cannot; a very perceptive cat

Role: Trainee

Mother: Lily'mist

Father: Shadow'whisker

Siblings: Wasp

Other notable kin: Soot'storm (uncle), Sheep'puddle (uncle), Bee'briar (grandmother), Larkspur (grandfather), Termite'tooth (grandfather)

Extra Notes: his previous name was Fennel and his "warrior name" was going to be Fennelsight, but I decided to change it to Aphid (with the help of a poll) bec it fit him so well! His new full name will be Aphid'eye!

Character Summary:

Aphid was born to Lily'mist alongside his sister Wasp, the liter's father is Shadow'whisker, though he doesn't act like it much. Lily was AroAce and never wanted a mate, but she did want kits, so she asked Shadow to be the donor of her liter and he accepted because he wanted to carry on his bloodline. The main interactions Shadow has with his kits are him looking at them judgmentally whenever they do something that doesn't live up to his expectations.

Aphid LOVED his mother, she was kind, and strong, she always made him feel safe and more confident. Aphid was always an anxious cat and he always felt more confident around his mother. However once Aphid and Wasp became trainees, Lily'mist and her brother Sheep'puddle disappeared and Aphid has become more anxious than ever before.

Monarch Spider'web claims that they ran away and abandoned the kinship. She says they were weak cowards who were not fit for the kinship life. Most cats believe her, including Wasp... however Aphid is not so sure. Aphid is a smart tom, he knows his mother would never abandon her kits, and that his uncle would never abandon his pregnant mate. Plus Aphid may have been young, but he noticed how much distaste Lily and Sheep had for the Monarch, they spoke out against her and her decisions often... and Aphid cant help but wonder if the terrifying leader might have something to do with their disappearances. Of course this would most likely mean they are dead... and Aphid is heartbroken at the thought.

Aphid's relationship with his sister is strained at best, Wasp believes what Spider'web says about her mother, and Aphid is horrified that his sister would think so lowly of their mother and uncle. Not only this, Wasp is also obsessed with being approved of by their peers and kinship. Aphid is considered the weakest of the trainees, and Wasp, being desperate for approval is pushing him away. She can often act quite cruel toward him these days, similar to how the trainees Bone and Ash treat him, but still Wasp hasn't been accepted by the more popular cats of the kinship, both siblings are alone... Aphid wonders why Wasp doesn't realize that Aphid is her only real ally and by pushing him away she has just sentenced them both to being alone.

I saw. SO MANY BUG today. (Sorry in advance for bad phone camera quality and shaky hands)

Male March fly!!! (Thanks to @microecobus for the ID!)

Baby sawfly!

Tiny assassin bug!

Flat bug (actually what they're called) and a zebra jumping spider!

Better look at the jumping spider!

Male California glowworm (species of firefly where only the babies and wingless females glow)!

Aphids!

Spittlebug (hiding in the foam on the leaf)!

And last but not least, a huge male snakefly (females have long ovipositors)!!!! So cool to find this one, I've only seen one in person once before in my life!

That's not counting the crane flies, honeybees, ants, little round orange mite, various flies, brown marmorated stink bug (of course), tiger butterfly, boxelder bugs, and tons of little parasitoid wasps I saw pollinating. An excellent bug day for Rev!
