I've got a bunch of new followers suddenly, so I thought I'd roll this out again as a bit of an introduction... Hi, I'm the artist that painted this, "The Favorite". Perhaps you've seen it around? 😊

For #fossilfriday I present you with an ibis fly (Athericidae) larva and its syninclusions from Baltic amber - a worker and and a checkered beetle larva (Cleridae). Fly larva we have published (see alt text for the link). Preparation of the amber by inimitable Jonas Damzen of Vilnus 🦖⚒️🐝

You think your life is 💩? Sure, amateur.
This baby lives in a little wizard hat made of its own poo, then blossoms into a lovely little fecal pellet beetle. And they wouldn't have it any other way 🥰

🚨 Lifer alert! 🚨 Check out this deer bot #fly that @dradriansmith.bsky.social found while we were hunting bugs - my first time getting pics of a wild adult of this family! It's a convincing bee mimic, whose babies live in the sinuses & throats of deer 😋 👀
