SNAPPING SHRIMP ON A SHIRT, I REPEAT, SNAPPING SHRIMP ON A SHIRT
SICB folks, please share widely! I may know the person running this account 👀😂
🚨🚨TOE-BITER TIME🚨🚨 Interested in how the eyes of amphibious insects transition from an aquatic to amphibious ecology? Check out my new paper with @drkatefeller.bsky.social and @alexcnkingston.bsky.social! Super psyched to have published on my beloved toe-biters!

Happy #worldrobberflyday to some of the very best flies you can find. Robberflies are wonderfully effective predators, with some even catching dragonflies. They combine remarkable vision, rapid reactions, and fast acting venom. Every #robberfly is a treat to find.
Ever wonder why everything is blurry when you open your eyes underwater? Watch #ProcB author Kathryn Feller talk about research on amphibious vision in compound eyes: cassyni.com/events/Ur5pU... 🧪
Ever wonder why everything is blurry when you open your eyes underwater?
The answer explained in this video seminar by @tannermierow.bsky.social and myself, recapping our new paper on amphibious vision in compound eyes!

So proud of the Toebiter team Tanner @tannermierow.bsky.social, Kate @drkatefeller.bsky.social, Jess, and Rick for our paper out in @royalsociety.org Proceedings B. Check out how we learned about the optics and performance of the eyes of amphibious insects: doi.org/10.1098/rspb...
Out today in @royalsocietypublishing.org - we show that crab spiders (the ones you usually see ambushing pollinators on flowers 🕷️🌸) get worse at hunting if their eyes are covered!🫣 Sounds obvious? It's actually quite surprising, here's why... 👀 (1/8)

New paper on seeing in air and water with compound eyes!
The problem: physics
The solution: physics
Elegantly described with the dream team @tannermierow.bsky.social and @alexkingston.bsky.social

if you do go to www.sc.edu i hope you know that the face of pure joy on my face is not because of the school, but because i was holding a crab 🦀
