Females are usually found gliding close to the ground in southern areas. Unlike that of H. alimena, these females possess a strong preference towards exaggerated visual signals (dorsal blue coloration). [9] [17] Unlike congenerics such as Hypolimnas anomala, female H. bolina most often lay one or two eggs at a time. These are typically laid on ...
While other black ants such as Lasius niger found their own nest, a post-nuptial queen of Lasius fuliginosus cannot found her own nest, but establishes a nest through social parasitism in another species of the same genus – Lasius umbratus, a rare yellow ant with an underground habit (unlike the common yellow ant Lasius flavus which makes ...
It is an omnivore that can be found worldwide, however it is most prominent in tropical areas, Pacific islands, the Pacific Northwest, [3] and damp environments. The adults are jet black and can range in size from 18 to 25mm in size, though some have grown to be 36mm. The males cerci are widely separated and serrated compared to the female. The ...
A photo shows these black and white eggs. The new species has only been found around the Serra da Namba mountains between elevations of about 5,700 feet and about 6,000 feet, according to the study.

Fibromelanosis is also found in some other black or blue-skinned chicken breeds, such as the Silkie. [6] [7] The roosters weigh 2–2.5 kg (4.4–5.5 lb) and the hens 1.5–2 kg (3.3–4.4 lb). The hens lay tinted or cream-colored eggs, although they are poor setters and rarely hatch their own brood. Eggs weigh an average of 45 g (1.6 oz).
Wallace's flying frog (Rhacophorus nigropalmatus), also known as the gliding frog or the Abah River flying frog, is a moss frog found at least from the Malay Peninsula into western Indonesia, and is present in Borneo and Sumatra. It is named for the biologist, Alfred R. Wallace, who collected the first known specimen. [2]
The species was first described by Hiroyuki Sasaji and Mark S. McClure in 1997 as Pseudoscymnus tsugae. [3] It was later discovered that the genus name Pseudoscymnus (published for Coccinellidae in 1962 [4]) was already in use for a genus of shark, and in 2004 the replacement name Sasajiscymnus was published by Natalia Vandenberg, [5] hence this species became Sasajiscymnus tsugae.
