Ferruginous Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium brasilianum)

A powerhouse in a small package. 👊 Although its size is comparable to a fist, this owl is an incredibly bold and efficient predator.

Its diet consists of large insects, reptiles, amphibians, and occasionally other birds of greater size.

Interestingly, its presence often triggers “mobbing” behavior; smaller birds like tanagers and hummingbirds will gather to vocalize alarm calls, exposing the owl’s location to neutralize the threat.

Primarily crepuscular, though it is frequently observed active throughout the day.

Taeniophora femorata
Rainbow cricket 🌈

Occasionally seen in Verbenaceae and Solanaceae

Solanaceae, some could be toxic, a family of herbaceous plants, shrubs or trees, with opposite or whorled leaves. Its flowers are small, but often grouped in striking inflorescences, the cricket uses this toxinity as a defense mechanism since when ingested it produces a certain toxicity which makes it look aposematic coloring as a warning sign.

Acanthocephala

Giant leaf-legged bug

Most hemipterans feed on plants, using their sucking and piercing mouthparts to extract the sap from the plant.

They live in a wide variety of habitats, usually terrestrial.

A specific feature of Acanthocephala is that sexual competition between males of this species depends on the dimorphism of their hind legs. They use their paws to pressure other males when competing for sexual partners. The length and diameter of the large tooth and femur of its hind legs are noticeably larger than those of the rest of its body, proportionally speaking. Females, on the other hand, do not possess these exceptionally large hind legs.

Rosenberg Gladiator Tree frog
Boana Rosenbergi

A large tree-dwelling frog, the transvensal line on its back is diagnostic to identify the species, males are involved in deadly fights with each other to protect their territory and often to protect egg masses, they have barbs on their forelimbs which they use to cause bleeding in other males.

Leaf insects belong to the order Phasmida (or Phasmatodea), but belong to different superfamilies.

More than 3000 species have been described. They are a group specialized in camouflage (crypsis) with extraordinary colors, shapes and behaviors that confuse them with the vegetation on which they inhabit and on which they feed.

The leaf shape of these animals is reinforced by the fact that their wings are adorned with patterns that are very reminiscent of the innervations of plant leaves and because their legs are endowed with lamellar expansions that blend in with those of the leaves themselves.
