You’re gonna have to be patient for this one. This little Gastropod veliger larva (sea snail) starts out in its shell, but soon feels brave enough to come out and show us its glorious velum! Such a pretty little babe. 🦑 #plankton

This is a really great grasshopper I found in Amazonas in Brazil. iNat experts are suggesting something in the genus Eurostacris, but I'm clueless and that doesn't seem to be a common genus of insect. #bugsky #invertefest #nature

In case this is helpful to someone out there: I'm moving to Ball State University this August, and I'll have a support for MS students over the next three years (RAs/TAs) If your lab has talented students graduating this spring, I welcome them to reach out and talk about the opportunities.
