Trilobite fossil
Trilobes are arthropods of the phylum Arthropoda trilobes. The body is divided into three parts: head, chest and abdomen. There is a carapace on the back, and the carapace is divided into three longitudinal parts. The head is covered with a hard shell, called the cephalic nail; the central raised part of the cephalic nail is called the head saddle, and the shape and size of the head saddle vary greatly according to the type; the front of the head saddle is the head cap with eyes on it; the abdomen and tail are also wrapped in carapace. It is named for the longitudinal division of the carapace on the back into three pieces.

Male moths emit high-frequency squeals during courtship, a defense mechanism created by inhaling and expelling air.
Specimen of moth (brown spotted variant)
is a black variety of the spotted moth, known for its adaptive changes during the Industrial Revolution. Originally, this moth was white in color with black spots and was suitable for perching on unspoiled trees. However, with the advancement of industrialization, environmental pollution has caused the trunk to turn black, and the original white moth has become conspicuous in this environment, thus being threatened by predators. In the 19th century, as pollution increased, the number of carbon-colored varieties increased rapidly, especially in industrial areas. The phenomenon, dubbed "industrial blackening," has become a classic case of natural selection showing how species adapt to survive changes in their environment.

The adult body length is approximately between 35 and 40 millimeters, with bright blue wings and black and white spots on the edges. The larval stage is very special, and there is a symbiotic relationship with ants. They will spend time in specific ant nests, where ants protect their larvae and provide food. Larvae will mimic the appearance and behavior of ants to gain their acceptance. This unique lifecycle makes the Blue Butterfly very demanding of its habitat, requiring specific plants as a food source and habitat adjacent to ant nests.
Emperor moth caterpillar specimen
The emperor moth is a large moth species known for its spectacular wings and unique life cycle. The wings can extend up to 20 to 30 centimeters, making it one of the largest species of moths with wings. The larval stage is spent in a very narrow cocoon, and when they are ready to transform into adults, they must pass through a cocoon opening that is relatively small to their own body. For them, it is a huge challenge because only through this difficult process can the wings obtain sufficient blood supply and thus acquire the ability to fly. The mouthparts of adult insects will degrade after metamorphosis, so they cannot eat and can only rely on the energy stored during the larval stage for survival.
Dragonfly specimen
He is one of the strongest members in the insect kingdom in terms of flying ability, known for his agile flying skills and hunting ability.

Larvae live in water and feed on small aquatic animals, while adults prey on other flying insects in the air. The hunting method is very unique, able to chase and capture prey in the air.
Green Haired Butterfly Specimen
It is a small butterfly belonging to the family Nymphalidae. It is known for the bright green and white stripes at the bottom of its wings, while the upper part of its wings is a relatively dull brown. Males may perform spiral flight near shrubs, while females are less conspicuous and are usually detected during egg laying. Larvae mainly feed on plants such as rock roses and common bird footed grasses, which grow on calcareous grasslands. Distributed on various soil types, but strongly associated with areas with shrubs and shrubs. Widely distributed in the UK and Ireland, but not for garden visitors, it is usually difficult to spot. It is a medium priority species for butterfly conservation.
Grassland brown butterfly specimen
Also known as the eye butterfly, it is a butterfly commonly found on the grasslands of Europe and Asia. Belonging to the Lepidoptera family, it is a small to medium-sized butterfly with brown wings and distinct circular eye spots that may be used to scare or confuse predatory birds. Larvae typically have a velvet like brown or green color and small, forked tail like appendages on their bodies. The tips of adult antennae gradually thicken, but not significantly; Forefoot degeneration, no need for contraction, males only have one tarsi, females have 4 to 5 tarsi, and claws are completely degenerated. The underside of the wings often has numerous eye shaped circular markings near the outer edge. It appears extensively in summer, especially on the grasslands of the United States and Europe.
Leopard moth specimen
Also known as garden tiger moth, it is a widely distributed moth species in Europe and Asia, also found in North America. It is named "caterpillar" because of its bright orange and black markings on the adults and the long, dense black and ginger yellow hair covering the larvae. Active during the summer months of July to August, especially in shrub covered sand dunes, forest edges, wetland grasslands, parks, and gardens. Larvae mainly feed on nettles, soursop, and other garden plants, which provide a rich source of food. Adults feed on nectar and fly at night, possessing a protective coloration to warn predators of their unpleasant taste. It can also generate harsh sounds by rubbing its wings to resist natural enemies
Pearl edged butterfly specimen
It is a medium-sized butterfly known for its pearl shaped white spots at the bottom of its wings and bright orange wings. It appears very early in spring and can be found in forest clearings or rough slopes with ferns in April. Usually flying near the ground, often stopping to smoke spring flowers such as snowballs. The conservation status of this butterfly is highly valued in the UK, and its population is rapidly declining in the UK and Wales, currently in a highly threatened state. Larvae mainly feed on plants of the Violaceae family and require sufficient food. Plants grow in short and sparse vegetation, with abundant fallen leaves.
Swamp shell butterfly specimen
It is a butterfly distributed in Europe, especially in the UK, Ireland, and some Nordic countries. Named after their habitat in moist grasslands and marshy areas, they are highly dependent on these specific habitats. Wings usually appear orange and black, and the back of male butterflies' wings has a blue sheen. Larvae feed on specific plants, which is crucial for their survival. Therefore, the distribution of marsh shell butterflies is limited by the habitat of their host plants. Progress has been made in the conservation of marsh mother butterflies in some areas, such as increasing their population through the implementation of specific conservation projects and habitat restoration plans.
