Environment, nature and community are like virtues. I often become fixated on topics like natural history, geology, ornithology and entomology. I love the unloved little critters and share passion toward every lil pebble along my way

Trick or treat,,? 🦗🦗🦗

Hiyaaa @bastards-utopia, where I am, it is already the 1st of November, so I apologise for the late response. However, I will still participate in 'Trick or Treat' and I have decided to go for TREAT !

For you, I have Neobarrettia spinosa or the greater arid-land katydid. It has many more names, but the spookiest and my personal favourite is the red eyed devil !

The aptly named red eyed devil is indeed a bit of devil, given it is a carnivorous insect which predates on many insects, including other katydids, frogs, small lizards and even a species of bird ! !

I hope you enjoyed it :D Have a lovely November !

Thank You so much!! That's a wonderful little devil. I love getting to know about strange buggas! 🦗

Other quadrupede friends of Akrillic

Burmi, the akrilian working dog

They're small non-strict carnivores that where recently domesticated by shprouts of all kinds, mostly by farmers and are the second most popular pet just after the Orson (a terrestrial arthropod)

The shape of their exoskull vary a lot and moslty depend on their hormonal cycles, the horns on it (two sides horns, one on the top and the plate at the back of the skull) grow their whole life and are specialised for defence and dig in sand or dirt..

The Takins or "Veiled Agathes" are a far cousin of the Burmi.

(the female on the left and the male at the right)

They aren't domesticated but love to live in the company of pastures and take advantage of the fact that domestic herds are protected to avoid predators.

I am in LOVE with the evolutionary rewamped version of something one would call a "beak" in contrast with the very insectoid crests

Might commit fan art...

Is anyone upset at my lack of ninjago posts? I get zero feedback so why should I care tbh

Kharstis Apex predators, Wheezingflyers 🌚

The main features of these creatures are cartilage stabilizing the "wings" similar to the ceratotrichia of manta rays, porous structures resembling keratinous gombs along the underside of the body and the head. they rise into the air, bouncing off the cliffs.. they sleep like bats technically, too.

They also have a wide-angle perceptions, it's not clear where it comes from (now it's clear; shared Tailgraver ancestor) but it certainly helps them see their prey from a distance during mineral noise.

Southern and northern Gliders, one of the many intelligent species in Artificial stars. They are different species due to hybrids being infertile. Their outer finger has extra joints that allow the finger to bind all the way back. They can’t fly due to feathers being too short but as the name suggests they are excellent gliders. The second pair of eyes can’t move.

I am in love with the design choice for the quadrupedal appearance! It gives avian traits while still looking bizzare !

Kharstis inhabitants, Tailgravers 🌚

They are large herding herbivores specializing in difficult, rocky terrain;

They move using a massive tail tipped with a keratinous club. Their arms are reduced to prehensile, clawed hands, used primarily for manipulating food and supporting themselves while resting.

Males are heavier, with larger tail clubs, extensive bony crests, and fangs. They compete for females with tail slaps and vocal displays.

The longer, narrower skull, ending in a keratonized "mouth" (something like a beak), is used to dig out growths from rocky recesses. Females have longer necks than males to more easily obtain food while caring for their young.

Their eyes are situated at the top of the skull (not fully visible in the illustrations due to their thick neck) and they have a panoramic view due to their prey function I don't even know if they have ears...

But their stocky build and keratinous scales act as shock absorbers during monopodal locomotion - they use their tail as a spring to propel themselves and thus move.

Sharing my little speculative bio planet idea 🌚

Kharstis is a relatively tiny planet in a binary star system (it circles around two suns). It's water storage is mostly preserved under the crust, leaking from deep niches between canyons. It's characterized by low-density atmosphere, which allows the increase of creature's weight without directly burdening them

What creatures could linger among the harsh canyons ?

Hey bugs!! I decided to celebrate the official release of Ninjago Season 3 by baking Arin's pie! I planned to make it today, but things got delayed due to moving into boarding school. I only managed to make a prototype and a sort of recipe (although its still really good 👀).

IM HAVING MAJOR ANEMIAC AND CARDIAC ISSUES RN BUT BUT I LOVE SMITHS I LOVE SMITHS LIKE uhh its actually a ninjago post undercowver, did you know-

I love imagining Kai in smithing outfit with those big puffy leather gloves and its also somewhat relatable and conforting to think about since my grandfather was a smith!! Sadly its a very primitive and villagey story so most of his works been forgotten by history because it "wasnt a big deal" which is sad.
