View this post on Hive: I Have No Idea What This Weird Creepy Crawly Thing Is
Sun Yuchen is a liar, thief, charlatan, and all around cunt. But I don't need to tell you that. Find me at Hive, where we are glad to be rid of him and all of his fake followers, sockpuppets, and thieves.
It's a Pupa of a Lady Beetle. It has different stages, it will get spots on its back within a day.

Since I was paid in both liquid STEEM and SBD because of the SBD/STEEM marketcap ratio thing, I've sent you 25% of both.

Thank you anyway! The image you found more closely matches the one I took than the image I found. It's extra confirmation, for that you'll get 10% of the SBD from this post and an upvote :)

Wow, thanks! Great work with the photos by the way. What sort of camera/lens do you use?

These were taken with a Tamron 90mm Di Macro lens attached to a D750.

Ah crap I forgot about the 10% I promised. Will rectify that immediately.
Sent 10% of the SBD plus roughly 10% of the liquid STEEM's worth in SBD because I don't have 3.5 liquid STEEM right now. :)

Those teeny tiny creatures are called Aphids and they are a gardeners worst nightmare. They literally suck the life out of plants. Ants harvest them to get at the sap the Aphids take from the plant.
Ladybirds are the solution. One ladybird will eat 50 of these per day.
Interesting fact: Aphids are born pregnant! WTF!

I'm no expert, but it looks like it could be some kind of "Giant Scale" insect. It looks a bit like the ones found on this page.

I think @veryrico got it but thank you for commenting! That thing looks like an old school trilobyte in certain ways.

Think these are some kind of bed bugs. They suck the plants sap to survive. Google for "aphid". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphid
