Just listed these little guys on my website! I'm super excited to be expanding this species list (especially making my way through all the Psyllobora) so keep an eye out for future sculptures. 🐞

Meet Cylindrocopturus quercus, a truly goofy little weevil and a pleasure to have in class!

I have created a small but mighty invertebrate army! 💪🪲💪

most of these are still waiting to be sealed but once that's done I might start listing them on my website :)

Graphocephala coccinea have been restocked!

One of my favorite genera of wasps to find, Perilampus! They come in a couple of different metallic-y colors (this one lands roughly around the species hyalinus so... I'm fudging it) but all have an adorable head to thorax to abdomen ratio. My one good Perilampus specimen was eaten by ants a few years ago :( so I couldn't compare it to these sculptures, but trust me, it's tiny. Instead....

Graphocephala coccinea is quite the standout! I've always known these guys colloquially as candy-striped leafhoppers but iNaturalist is telling me they're called red-banded leafhoppers. :/ agree to disagree, I guess.

This first batch has already hopped off to new homes but there will definitely be more in the future!
