夏威夷金頂樹蝸 (Achatinella apexfulva)觀察者
axarus描述
These observations are for a collection of shells that were collected sometime between 1873 and 1903 by Dwight David Baldwin (and perhaps others, but the collection is believed to have belonged to Baldwin). So far, only one tray has a date "coll. 1892", and so all dates are approximate and chosen because it was the earliest date iNat would allow. When photography is complete, the collection will represent approximately 40 species.

Crocosmia fucata - one of the gems of Namakwaland
been aware of this Kamiesberg endemic since 1987, so truly awesome to actually come upon a whole new population of this wonderful sp as my first sighting! To 1.7m tall, in its usual damp habitat, upper south slopes. Three separate patches, each with at least 40 plts, no evident threats or predation; previously only known from two subpops, one of which has not been revisited or surveyed for many decades

I didn’t realize it had caught dinner (some type of fish) until I got it under some light!

Watched as the ladybird beetles walked around underneath this spider but it didn't seem to mind and paid them no attention.

My cuz Pete and I got bored from the tedious effort of removing dozens of these cuddly little bloodsuckers from an otherwise happy and healthy Wood Turtle (Glyptemys insculpta) study population in scenic Sussex County, NJ - so we decided to take a break, and have a few laughs with our "recently-evicted" parasitic pals!

I've never met biting leeches elsewhere in Siberia. In this taigous and mountainous place, with quite harsh climate, they were especially unexpected. These were unusual in that respect that their bites were very painful, unlike bites of regular blood-sucking leaches which secret some anaesthetics. Also these huge creatures bate through the trousers! Each time I entered water they attacked after 4-5 minutes. I wonder if these were some endemic species or and invasion of some European species. The pattern seems to differ from 'regular' medical leaches.

very tough finding ID resources for these guys, but I feel pretty good about this distinct and beautiful leech. There were many present in the pond, attracted to the vibrations by my foot in the water.

Large reddish brown terrestrial leech. Found in peat in a penguin rookery on Snares main island. 7-9cm long extended, 2-3cm wide (possibly just fed). Round sucker on under surface. Papillae, red-brown with yellow colouration. Coolest thing I have ever seen.

Male a bit smaller and the female during my observations watching the Bornean ground cuckoo (Carpococcyx radiceus).
endemic to the island of Borneo,being found in the sections belonging to Brunei, Malaysia and Indonesia. It is restricted to humid forest. It is threatened by habitat loss. It was formerly considered conspecific with the Sumatran ground cuckoo.
