Peucetia Viridana - Green Lynx Spide R- Animal India

A green lynx spider (Peucetia viridana) is seen camouflaged among the green leaves on a branch of a Holy Basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum), or Tulsi plant, as it patiently waits for prey in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on November 9, 2024. Known for its agility, this spider doesn't build webs but instead stalks its prey, launching an attack similar to a lynx in the wild. With a green cephalothorax marked by brown spots, a spine-covered head region, and a narrow abdomen with a central brown line and lateral branches, Peucetia viridana is an effective natural predator in agricultural pest management. Feeding on crop pests like moths and their larvae, these spiders serve as a natural insecticide, helping to control harmful pests in a sustainable way. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)

                  Ladybug Beetle (Coccinellidae) - Animal India

                  Ladybug Beetle (Coccinellidae) - Animal India

                  A Coccinellidae (ladybug or ladybird beetle) larva was observed on leaves in a forest in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on November 9, 2024. The larva displays a unique camouflage defense mechanism resembling a small jasmine flower to avoid predators. Typically found in shaded shrubs or bushes under tall trees, these larvae are vulnerable to heavy rain but may survive by sheltering beneath leaves. Most species in the Coccinellidae family are carnivorous predators, coexisting with other insects like ants, planthoppers, and treehoppers in their natural forest habitat.
