Yesterday I made two images of two Neoponera (in San Cipriano, Colombia). Only noticed when editing the images that one of them was in fact a spider (Castianeirinae, Corinnidae) :P
I think first time a spider fooled me that well in a long time :)

just added Eupelmidae vs Encyrtidae to #DuoNat :)
and while doing so realized that I have almost all bees and ants for Hymenoptera, need to change that asap!

150 hymenoptera pairs and only one is Chalcidoidea it's embarassing ;)

I'm currently developing #DuoNat, and I'm not using cc-by-nc for now, because I might have to charge for it to cover the costs (hope not though)… I need at least 8 good-enough-quality per taxon. not there yet for A. quinquenotata :P

you can tell the similar-looking Diopsidae apart from them because they also have the antenna at the ends of the stalks.

TIL that they're related to Lauxaniidae, which I always confuse with Drosophilidae.
