guess i'm good right now with the plant posting, it's time for a little bit of inverts-at-night posting following my portfolio building around here 🦗

they're kinda my specialty so we'll probably have a lot of up-close crawlies in the dark here in the following days - hope you guys like 'em!

Almost all the pics were taken during field research at night in the Atlantic or Amazon rainforest years ago 🖤
