For #TrilobiteTuesday, here are two reconstructions of Ceraurus species trilobites. On the right, drawings by Leif Stormer from painstaking studies of his using specimens from the Walcott-Rust quarry. Left, my 3D reconstruction in bronze, based heavily on Stormer’s work. #SciArt
Two pairs of reconstructions of a spiny, trilobite species, Ceraurus pleurexanthemus. On the right, two overlapping drawings of Ceraurus, one upside down to show the legs and other soft tissues like gills and antennae, and the other right side up, showing the hard outer protective plates of the trilobite. On the left, the same two views, except this time, there are a pair of solid bronze reconstructions sitting in my open hand against a white background.

Photo of an enamel pin of a celestial-themed stag beetle. The body is blue with yellow and gold markings, red elytra and jaws, and darker blue wings and legs. The beetle is holding a yellow sun with many triangular rays in its jaws. The elytra are decorated with a few stars, and more stars and tiny planets decorate the wings. The pin is resting on a blue and purple cloth surface with some gold accents. Photo of an athletic gold bandana with a honeybee and honeycomb design printed in warm brown ink. It's folded in half diagonally and resting on a worn wooden fence as a backdrop. Photo at an angle of many identical stickers layered on top of each other, each featuring a stylized black millipede with rainbow gradient metallic stripes. Light is reflecting off the gloss of the stickers in places, showing how bright the metallic details can appear. Photo of an enamel pin of a green and yellow praying mantis done in a symmetrical geometric design with straight lines forming every shape of its body. It's shown on a purple backing card that reads "Insecta Geometrica Enamel Pin" at the top and "The Art of Mary Capaldi" with a crowned moth logo at the bottom.

#Christmasbeetle poster for #InverteFest 🪲
A digitally-drawn yellow poster featuring 12 different Christmas beetles. The name of each beetle is written beneath them as well as their distribution in Australia. The title reads 'CHRISTMAS BEETLES - ANOPLOGNATHUS'

Christmas beetles display some of the most exquisite iridescence in nature, from shimmering golds to vibrant greens. It’s more impressive than any festive light display! ✨

So here’s some beetle royalty… the Queen (Anoplognathus viriditarsis) & King (Anoplognathus viridiaeneus) 🪲

Happy holidays!
A Queen beetle (Anoplognathus viriditarsis) specimen held in my hand over a drawer of other Christmas beetles. A preserved specimen of a King beetle (Anoplognathus viridiaeneus) which is a stunning metallic yellow/gold.

Didn't see a lot of birds today but boy howdy did I see some cool bugs! Check out this gorgeous katydid 😍. I think it's a broad-winged bush katydid (Scudderia pistillata) and I for one am impressed with its leaf camouflage game

Green insect that looks almost exactly like a leaf, except for long legs and long antennae and a red eye. It is perched atop a cluster of yellow goldenrod flowers

Copiphora rhinoceros, the infamous Rhino headed katydid from Central America. A beautiful omnivorous predator. #katydid #insect #bug #macro #cricket #grasshopper

Copiphora rhinocerous, the Rhino horned katydid. The ovipositor is ludicrously long even at sub adult. #katydid #insect #bugsky #invertebrate

Six cute drawings of coffee cups and saucers with insects on top of the coffee as if made in 3D latte art. Top is a yellow cup with a bumblebee and a red cup with a stag beetle. Middle is an orange cup with a cicada and a teal cup with three ladybugs. Bottom is a green cup with a mantis and a blue cup with a cricket. All the cups say "Bug 🤍 Café" on them.

Want an amazing present for your fav little folks at Christmas?

Then what about a book on inspirational insects? Learn about some of the many species on the planet and how they have helped us. Medics, Detectives, Astronauts…the insects are all helping

Then what about a book on some amazing insects, the people that have studied them, & how their research has lead to some inspiration developments - from the bling of wing to voyaging to space 😎
