Hi, I'm Andrew and I’m just a simple 18 year old guy and zoology student that posts random factoids about obscure animals and general animal science/zoology/biology stuff so if you like animals this is the place for you, if you only like cute animals this is not the place for you… I also like astronomy and some weirdos from youtube called the creatures so I’m prone to reblog stuff about that too. Also I track the 'astronomy-to-zoology' tag so yeah.
Disclamer: none of the pictures are mine unless stated
Order Doliolida: an order of thaliaceans found in tropical waters. Unlike their salp cousins doliolids have 8-9 bands of muscle lining their bodies, making them look similar to a barrel.

Cinnabar Moth
(Tyria jacobaeae)
is a species of moth in the family Arctiidae (Arctiid moths) that can be found in most parts of the world due to their effectiveness in controlling ragwort, although their native range is Europe and central Asia. The name cinnabar comes from the red patches on their wings which look like the mineral cinnabar. They are a normal sized moth with a wingspan of 30-40 mm long. these moths fly around during the day and are toxic (the red colors serve as a warning).
