Flooding the ark

Remember, gang, we're trying to flood the Modulator's Friday Ark with invertebrates and other non-boring organisms. Post pictures of your favorite chitinous/boneless/squamous/amorphous/squishy/crunchy/deceased critter to your weblog and pass along a link. It'll be the invasion of the neglected biota!

I'm looking forward to seeing how he classifies a 300 million year old mass mortality layer of a taxon that still has living representatives.

The cool thing about my life is that I just happen to have such a thing sitting on my back porch.

I went with a fungi eating a snaring a nematode myself.

Sorry for the bad grammer. That should read: I, myself, went with fungi snaring a nematode.

How about I submit my new avatar?

S. coleoptrata has always been a Midwest favorite of mine.

I've been getting lots of fine boarders! Keep it up.

I let Chris categorize his boarders as invertebrates though he does have a strong case for all the ones that didn't make it.

Yep, even found a place for the granite.

Woo hoo, invertibrates are currently ahead of dogs and birds combined.

Forget speciesism; Friday Foo Blogging is a blatant example of the pervasive lifeist mindset of the blogosphere. We speak for the 99% of Earth's mass that is not and never has been alive, and we demand representation!...

First post here, although I have been reading entries of late. Helped to re-spark an interest in biology (and maybe help me get into teaching it to kids). In recognition, I posted to my LJ (no blog, sorry, so hopefully this counts) a creature my invert prof loved - the Rotifer. Euchlanis, particularly.
