Damn that’s crazy! never saw/heard of one so doubt they’re in my area. nice find!

I’ve seen 'em in Borneo and Sumatra before, but only a few times here in Thailand.

From Wikipedia;
“The family Phylliidae contains the extant true leaf insects or walking leaves, which include some of the most remarkably camouflaged leaf mimics in the entire animal kingdom. They occur from South Asia through Southeast Asia to Australia.”

Haven’t seen many bugs since winter started. Found this Widow under a rock when I was tearing down our trampoline.

Entomology is one of my interests, and I love to do butterfly gardening (or I did, before my health got so bad).

I have a lot of pics!



There’s still a pic that isn’t mine in here, but I am too tired to keep editing my goofs lol

This is an awesome thread! Thank you so much for starting it, @Spitfire!

I loves me some bugs too, but never think to take pictures of the amazing little devils. I’m going to try to remember to start doing that! :+1:

Winter is almost over so I’m sure I’ll be finding a pile of new bugs. .


Here’s a Black Widow that was under a rock around my trampoline when I was tearing it down about a month ago. Survived under this rock through freezes.
