Most rove beetles try to run and hide when disturbed. Oxyporus annoyingly fly at the first sign of trouble. #entomology

Peekaboo! 🍄

Finally got photos of a cross-toothed rove #beetle from our Fungal Foray last week. A mycologist was holding a mushroom (wish I had pics) and I noticed this little one inside. Unfortunately it flew away in the lab so no specimen 😭

#Staphylinidae: #Oxyporus vittatus
Norh Carolina, USA
A tan mushroom close up shows a hole in it with the head and antennae of the black beetle hiding inside. A very shiny black elongate beetle with short wing covers bearing patches of dark brown rests on a white background facing left. The tip of the abdomen is orange and the legs are pale tan.

Entomology Update - October 2026
As we careen towards the solstice, welcome rain continues but the impact of the summers lingers - few mature insects around.

Entomologist Clare Baltazar was born 99 years ago today! In 1979 she wrote the first textbook of the insects of the Philippines and discovered eight new genera and 108 new species of parasitic wasps. She was made a National Scientist of the Philippines in 2001.

Scarce Snakefly (Subilla confinis) from Epping Forest in the spring #Raphidioptera #entomology
a lateral macro of a snakefly. The body is black and dark brown, elongated, with a very elongated thorax and head. The legs are mostly yellowish. The wings are folded over the abdomen and are translucent with a network of dark veins.

Cozy romance between plants?
Cute dryad transmasc rep?
Comedy?
Bug facts?

Yup! Flowers and Entomology will be my easiest book to market it. Now if only life would let me focus on it.

Researchers out of London have just put together the first-ever European ash pangenome.

Using this, scientists can identify genes associated with ash dieback resistance and eventually EAB resistance as it spreads across Europe.
