in what unjust world is there Mops mops and Boops boops but no Blaps blaps? Get your act together, tenebrionid systematists

wikipedia's beloved photo of the fish species Boops boops. It is a startled-looking but otherwise unremarkable silver fish.

wikipedia's photo for the tenebrionid genus Blaps, but NOT Blaps blaps because there is no Blaps blaps.... YET

Happy Apache Trout Day to those who celebrate! Sept 5 was declared Apache Trout Day in Arizona to celebrate the delisting of this beautiful fish, the first sport fish and first salmonid to be removed from ESA listing. These fish only exist because of the White Mountain Apache Tribe.

Picture of a large Apache Trout. This fish is unique because of its green yellow body and black speckling.

The skull of a Flat-tail horned lizard (Phrynosoma mcallii), close relative of the 'Texas horny-toad', native to the Sonoran desert. Unlike the thorny spikes on the body that are made of modified skin keratin, head spikes (horns) are bony skeletal structures covered in keratin. (📷: Emily Chebul)

Flat-tailed Horned Lizard (Phrynosoma mcallii) in Mexico. The skull has bony spike all over it, but especially near the nostrils and back fringe of the head.

The Odyssey was a great movie if you ignore the terrible dialogue, loyalty to the Poems, period-accurate dress, drab clothing, actors too old to play their characters, and lack of major characters. Score was incredible tho. #JusticeforHermes

One of my college professors told me that wanting to work for an agency was a waste of my time and the only meaningful science was one by professors in a university so it brings me the utmost pleasure that they no longer work in wildlife management or live in Arizona.
