    Long-flange Millipede (Orthomorpha Coarctata) - Animal India

    Orthomorpha coarctata plays a significant role in soil nutrition by composting waste and is particularly abundant from June to September, when males and females often pair for mating. In one observed mating ritual in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on September 8, 2024, a male approached a female from behind and gradually mounted her back to initiate the mating process. Orthomorpha coarctata, commonly known as the long-flange millipede, is a widely introduced species of polydesmidan millipede from the family Paradoxosomatidae. Although presumed native to Southeast Asia, this species has been transported by humans to tropical and subtropical areas around the world, including the Hawaiian Islands, the West Indies, the Gulf Coast of North America, and the Galápagos Islands.

                  Animal India - Froghoppers

                  Animal India - Froghoppers

                  Froghoppers, or the superfamily Cercopoidea, are a group of hemipteran insects in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha. Adults are capable of jumping many times their height and length, which gives the group their common name. However, many species are best known for their plant-sucking nymphs, which produce foam shelters and are commonly referred to as ''spittlebugs.'' These nymphs produce a covering of foamed-up plant sap that visually resembles saliva; as a result, they are commonly known as spittlebugs, and their foam is often called cuckoo spit, frog spit, or snake spit. This characteristic spittle production is associated with the unusual trait of xylem feeding. A few species are significant agricultural pests. On August 17, 2024, a froghopper was observed sitting on the edge of a leaf in a forest at Tehatta, West Bengal, India. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
