Hey can you help me ID this one? I've been told it's an Hydrozoan - but need a more genus/species ID help for me to look. iNat suggests: Halichondria bowerbanki (but the team doesn't feel confident about it) Mumbai, India (October 18th) #ShoreWalk #Photography #虫 #InvertID

Hi Bsky~~ look at some really cool (camouflaging) bugs!! 1. Leaf-footed Bugs (Family Coreidae) - no definite #InvertID 2. Carinate Locust (Trilophidia annulata) is a species of band-winged #grasshopper #Photography #Invertebrate #虫

Look at this gorgeous Black Mud-dauber Wasp. (Species: Sceliphron madraspatanum) I think I shot about 4-5 different Wasps, need to edit and check if they all fall in the same genus - or maybe a different one! #photography #虫 #NatureWalk #InvertID

A Satellite Fly - not sure about the species, but this was pretty big in size and very fascinating to see it. #photography #虫 #NatureWalk #InvertID (off late super fascinated by the flies I've been coming across - and not a single one has been the common house fly when observed closely)

Hi from this Skipper (not sure of the exact ID of this butterfly) (iNat tells me the flower is called Littlebell, and how cool a name is that) #photography #虫 #NatureWalk #InvertID

Another #iNat result of #Invertebrate not been observed in the city (or ~country) but definitely a better match than the ones suggested | ref: www.gbif.org/species/5036... #InvertID #Photography

#iNat suggests it to be a Chalcidid Wasp (Family Chalcididae)) Visually it is similar to one that has not been observed (or documented) in India - Brachymeria tibialis, but the hind tibia of this species is yellow, dorsally along the entire length. #InvertID #Photography
