Canary Worm (Fletchamia sugdeni)Observer
cowirrieDescription
Seen in the Henry Somerset Orchid Conservation Area. Very similar circumstances to this observation, including the ants.
How much risk are the ants taking here? If they walked across the flatworm, would they stick to it and get digested too?

0.5-1mm orange cup black hairy outer on small Banksia leaf.
Found a few only on Banksia leaf while searching for another similar shaped fungus Hymenoterrendiella madsenii was suggested to me but it doesn't visually fit in with image database search.

Genus TasmanicaObserver
tasmanian_cryptofaunaDescription
This is one of the most unusual weevils I have come across. As you may be able to notice this Cossonid weevil lacks eyes. This is because it lives deep under rocks and mimicks ants to obtain food.
Most Cossonid weevils are found in wood, making its habitat most unusual for a cossonid

Frostweed (Verbesina virginica)Observer
gcwarblerDescription
"The Art of Mother Nature".
These images represent the brief but beautiful display we get on the first hard freeze of a winter--if we get such a morning at all at our latitude. We've had a few cold mornings just below freezing in Austin over the past few weeks, but this Arctic blast was enough to keep the temperature in the teens and 20's for several hours. The result for Frostweed is frozen sap which splits the base of the stem and comes curling out in fantasticly beautiful "shaved ice" forms. Botanical icicles. The shapes are as diverse as snowflakes.
