The subreddit for cute pictures of bugs, lobsters, squid, and other non-Vertebrata.

Because they're adorable too.

For adorable invertebrates.

This is a no-nope zone. No "kill it with fire" here.

All adorable invertebrates welcome from all taxa (except Vertebrata)! If you want to post a cute invertebrate, posting a link to a Wikipedia article in a comment or posting a paragraph about the animal is highly encouraged, and if you can find its scientific name, it is not required, but encouraged to put it in the title. Also, give credit to the original photographer/source where available.

Every Wednesday is Watery Wednesday - for aquatic invertebrates.

Sharing your cute invertebrate-related artwork is fine, but please do not link to shop sites or advertise items for sale.

    I have no picture

    But today I was carolling at someone's house and I felt a tickly sensation while singing. Looked down after the song was done and there was an adorable bright leaf green grasshopper climbing my leg. I picked him up on my finger. I live in Brisbane, Australia if you're wondering about why it's warm enough for bugs in December.

    I haven't posted on reddit recently, so here is a video of some thrips I filmed in the summer in my garden in Scotland. These thrips are around 1mm in size, seems like I found a whole family! :) I'm now posting arthropod videos more regularly on instagram @gentlesteps_
