China biodiversity data

 All IDs here tentative unless otherwise noted. Pics next to each other that seem to be the same individual are, unless otherwise noted.

Taicang indoors 4/26:

Liposcelis, in dried goods

Grain ptinid, with Liposcelis above


Pteromalid-type wasp, probably parasitizing grain anobiid, too large to eat Liposcelis, moribund from probable adult starvation (no nectar indoors for adult to drink), refused sugar when offered


Muscid-type fly

Suburban ornamental landscaping surrounding my residence:
Episyrphus..?, one of the few incredibly common diurnal insects at this time, adults seem to prefer shaded microhabitats

Gall on topiary, neither exactly common nor rare on its host

Crematogaster (ants are one of my weak spots btw)

Ditto but male

Anthomyiid? drinking honeydew



Smallish lycosid

Lasius? It's like a fat Linepithema lol,

Generic looking miner, host appears to be...
...Erigeron philadelphicus? Common weedy daisy here.

Same plant as above.


Mosses in half dead lawn, they're dry and revive when it rains
Some dormant snail I don't recognize

Water-walking flies in the artificial drainage-duct river, Brachydeutera?

Pheidole? minors cooperatively carrying lump, very unlike the ants I'm used to where when more than one worker tries to drag the same object they end up interfering with each other
Major that was following the same trail as the minors above, so probably conspecific
