Athrylith y Wasg XII

Another not all that difficult GOP challenge, found here from the Scottish TV website. What’s wrong with the story below?

A Bit of British Humo(u)r

A short clip from the brilliant show, Quite Interesting. The start of the discussion is in regards to cochineal bugsalthough they refer to them as beetles! (see buggirl)

A Sierran Spider

A weekend without moths can lead a lepidopterist to do crazy things. Crazy enough to photograph a spider. Over the weekend I was accompanied to the eastern Sierra by fellow insect blogger, coworker and arachnologist, Szuts Tamas. I was on the quest for more specimens of a new Hepialidae of which you may be familiar . . . → Darllen Mwy: A Sierran Spider

Dirgelwch canol wythnos

While I work on a more substantial post, you can name this butterflyand the plant should be pretty easy too. Extra bonus if you can guess the county (state won’t be too impressive) in which I took this photo. This was pre-DSLR, but my old beat up canon point-and-shoot did manage to get . . . → Darllen Mwy: Dirgelwch canol wythnos

Athrylith y Wasg XI

Mae'r athrylith hwn o'r wasg yn arbennig iawn, nid am ei anhawster, ond am ei ddiswyddiad. Cefais yr un stori ar ddwy ffynhonnell ar wahân, gyda gwahanol ddelweddau – a'r ddau yr un mor anghywir! Gallaf ddychmygu na fydd yn cymryd yn hir i rywun nodi yn union beth sydd o'i le ar y straeon hyn (awgrym, yno . . . → Darllen Mwy: Athrylith y Wasg XI

Rydw i wedi bod ychydig ar ei hôl hi…

Ac wrth i mi ddal i fyny gallwch wylio Isabella Rossellini iasol yn ail-greu strategaethau paru llau gwely. Dylech chi hefyd ddarllen, os nad ydych wedi ei ddal yn barod, the excellent bedbug article written by the distinguished (a'm cyn-athraw) Mai Berenbaum.

Mae aflonyddu New Tuedd?

Yn y llun yn ddu-gwythiennau gwyn (Aporia ssp crataegi), ac mae'n cael ei ddychwelyd ar hyn o bryd i Corea Sefydliad Adnoddau Biolegol. Benthyciadau cael eu dychwelyd, ag y dylent fod, bob dydd – a gall hyd yn oed yn rhif yn y miloedd o sbesimenau.

Anghenfilod Muppet

Yr wyf yn baglu ar (nid ar stumbleupon) y delweddau SEM lliw hyn ar dudalen we'r Telegraph heddiw. Rwy'n hoff iawn o'r ddelwedd hon o larfa Calliphoridae yn arbennig (Protophormia sp.) mae hynny'n ymddangos yn fwy allan o ffilm ffuglen wyddonol gradd C na natur. Mae'n fy atgoffa o gymeriad Star Wars freakish a Muppet ar yr un peth . . . → Darllen Mwy: Anghenfilod Muppet

Porn Glöynnod Byw

Here is a hill-topping male Papilio zeliacon, or Anise swallowtail. This butterfly is widespread in the western Pacific states and is probably much more common than it once was. After the introduction of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), and subsequent escape from horticulture, the anise swallowtail took hold as a common California butterfly. Perhaps before this . . . → Darllen Mwy: Porn Glöynnod Byw

Oes, Rhaid i Weriniaethwyr Casáu Fi Hefyd.

Over on Myrmecos Alex Wild just brought to my attention a rather personal attack from a pair of republican senators (Tom Coburn, R-Okla., and John McCain, R-Ariz). Once again I started to comment, but given how close to home this hits, I felt a longer winded diatribe approaching
