A collection of eggs produced by different stick insect species (Phasmida) Even within one type of insect, the eggs can take on all sorts of different looks, with many looking like ancient pottery. (Photo: Drägüs)

Take a picture of a leaf bug, from the top, and it looks exactly like a picture of a leaf. You really can’t tell it’s a bug at all, which is probably the bug’s reason for such a clever disguise. This bug is of the order Phasmida and is sometimes referred to as a phasmid. It is found primarily in Australia and Southeast Asia.

My Ramulus artemis named Artemis, from about a year ago. I had six adult sticks at one point so yeah, I marked them after the fifth molt.

get stickbugged lol.

(please don't kill me again :/)

There isn't a single trace of amusement in the Demon King's expression, not even as the little creature begins swinging back and forth.

Instead, he extends a hand, allowing the insect a new branch to perch on, as it were. He watches with curiosity as it began to crawl across his fingers and continue his little dance on Muzan's hand.

"Phasmatodea." The demon begins, with a subtle edge of excitement. An excitement that befitted a scientist. "—also known as Phasmida, Phasmatoptera or Spectra. Or, stick bugs, as they are referred to more colloquially."

Gradually, he begins to move his arm as the creature crawled around, exploring its new environment.

"Humorous little creatures, aren't they? It was a good find. But you ought to put it back where it belongs. It's not a toy."

#ic.#here have the most. HUMORLESS. response there ever has been #he doesnt understand what stickbugged is he's so old i am so sorry 😭 disconnected from meme culture.
