Dracula, Bram Stoker
The vampire squid Vampyroteuthis infernalis, it's name literally means “the vampire squid from hell.”
Sounds like a Halloween nightmare, right?

Yesterday I posted about how we don’t really know our biodiversity.
There are an estimated 8–11 million species on Earth.
Less than 15% are named and described.
Without names, their stories may never be told.

It's not that they’re really absent.
We just haven't been looking closely enough.

– Carl Sagan
Sagan was referring to the tiny blue dot in the image.
A tiny blue grain.
Mostly ocean.
Teeming with weird and wonderful life.
It looks calm and blue from space.
But up close, it's messy. Fragile.

And have been for some time.
Caddisfly larvae have rocked them since the 70ties.
Microplastics have been in the food chain longer than many of us have been alive.
And we’re still acting like it’s news.

About 1cm long in tidepool, Sydney, Australia. Have it down to the Haminoeidae family so far, but would love to get it to species if possible! 🧪🦑🐙 🐌 Here's the iNat for it too:

Gotta love ‘em all, also the real ones!
Well, at least some are inspired by real biodiversity.

This is both the largest arthropod alive (3.8 m or 12 ft leg span, only males are this extreme) and the only living species in its family. Mainly found in Japanese waters up to 600 m depth.
(Yes we know it's Thursday, sorry)

Intet sett, intet tapt.
Om kartet er tomt, betyr det at det det er ingenting av verdi der?
Ingen sårbare arter, habitater eller naturtyper?
Nei, stort sett betyr det bare at ingen har sjekket.

I am looking for fun and interesting species that use the night sky, e.g. for navigation. I have a shortlist, but I'm interested in hearing about species that I might not have come across, and this is a good chance to share some real cool niche wildlife with the wider public
