Not a mantis. Not a fly. Mantisflies are parasitoids of spider eggs. They lay eggs under a leaf neatly spaced apart and close to spider egg sacs. After hatching, the larvae go off in search of spider eggs to do their parasitoid job while the spider mum cares for them cluelessly.

Swifts: amazing acrobatic insect feeders; but did you know that the bugs they hunt are often the same ones that farmers are keen to control? A win-win for conservation and crop protection? 🪲 🌱🐦‍⬛Hannah Romanowski Kelly Jowett Dion Garrett Full story 👇 rothamsted.ac.uk/news/swifts-ha…

There’s some serious beetle wrangling going on at Groundswell as Rothamsted Research’s Kelly Jowett points out the parts of a ground beetle to help with identification, ably assisted by Alex Dye & Dion Garrett. Loving the improvisation here! 🪲👍 #groundswell2024
