The epigyne (or epigynum) is the external genital structure of female spiders. It's found on the underside of the abdomen. Size and shape can varies among species, and is useful in diagnosing species. I'm interested in variation among individuals within a species--so I'm photographing them.
There's an #iNaturalist project which gathers observations that include photos of the epigyne and the male palpal bulb.
FYI, Asian needle ants (Brachyponera chinensis) are in the Philadelphia area. Their painful sting can induce anaphylaxis, so be careful. If you find them please submit pic to iNaturalist so Michael Skvarla (Penn State) can come collect samples for confirmation. #ants #stinging #stinger #inaturalist #invasive #insects #anaphylaxis #delco #philadelphia #pennsylvania #hymenoptera https://share.inquirer.com/OTb0j7
A Black Bat Flower (Tacca chantrieri) spotted in the National Orchid Garden at the Singapore Botanic Gardens on 27 July 2025. It has been many years since I last saw one, so nice to see it again.
They belong to the yam family, and got the name by being black with bracts that resemble wings.

@ohm nice overview. #iNaturalist also needs the coastlines buffered to catch sightings in the littorall zone. I've done something similar with one vice-county for Ireland, but am not aware of a good way to achieve this for several boundaries at once.
