I want to fully eradicate it. I've been driving over it, mowing it and treating it with herbicides, but keeps coming back. Area is very sandy , shady and moist.

The yellow and orange colonies interest me I have reason to suspect the orange colony is e-coli because we found some gram negative bacillus and I've been told the yellow one may be staphylococcus but it looks different from other colonies found on the internet

I woke up in middle and found this, i have never seen such type of thing, almost like im burned with a hot screw driver, even slight liquid comming out.

I found it in my VRBO in the woods in New Hampshire. Google lens says one thing (I won’t say it here, I don’t want to influence your thoughts). I am asking for another opinion because I’m not convinced google lens is correct.

Whatever this is keeps singing in my mother's yard, but flying away before she can get a good look at it. Does anyone recognize it's song or whatever?

Found this on my window and captured it. Does someone know what type of fly it is? It's way skinnier and longer than regular flies but it has similar eyes.

Found him in a shipping container that came overseas from china to the uk. Does anyone know what it is?

Sorry I didn't take any more pics if it to help

Hi all, I just started my first year MS program. Without being too specific, my project is to identify/describe a new dinosaur skull and place it on the cladeogram. Usually in paleo (as other fields) this is done by comparing the specimen to a character list and denoting a feature as absent/present.

My issue is that I’m relatively behind on the statistic/coding/phylogenetic analysis part. I took only one intro stats class in undergraduate a couple years ago in which we used R, but have had no experience using these skills for actual research. Eventually it’ll be something I’ll have to have someone teach me the software specifics for, but in the mean time, could anyone recommend videos I could watch to help me “catch up”? I’ve been trying to google around but videos seem to be either too specific/complicated (making cladeograms via specific programs) or too general (reading a phylogenetic tree).

Overall, I’m just hoping for some recommendations of videos or even creators to give overviews of common stats tests or phylogenetic methods (PCA, character matrices, etc.) that are beginner friendly.

Thanks in advance!

Saw this little crab on YouTube, but can't figure out what species she is. The video was filmed in Romblon, Philippines in July.

The video title is "Adorable chubby hairy crab in Romblon" by kay blue. In case anyone's interested. (And 'cause I can't seem to be able to link it here)
