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.

    "This is mine, go find your own."

    Carrhotus xanthogramma female with her lunch. Also looks like it could be her teddy bear.

    Came across an Earthworm that was climbing down a wall, about a couple metres high! 🪱

    You don’t usually think of earthworms as climbers, since they have no feet unlike gastropods. From a distance I thought it was a centipede.

    But this guy proves otherwise. Weirder yet is there’s no soil particularly nearby, only a lawn around the corner. Presumably he climbed to escape excess moisture? 🤔

    Regardless, surprisingly adorable to watch it slowly and cautiously feeling its way down the wall.
