these tiny mysterious Issidae planthoppers are pretty common around here but i rarely spot them because they just look like little pieces of debris. sometimes i see ants harvesting them for honeydew, which would be normal if not for the fact that the ants are often bigger than them. imagine if your milk came from dog-sized cows

what. what do you want

After years of observing these caddisfly larvae, French naturalist and artist, Hubert Duprat, wondered if the caddis flies would use any materials to build their cocoon. He introduced flakes of gold, pearls and opals to the caddis flies and they did in fact use them for their cocoons. They use their own silk as the glue to hold their pupal constructions together.
