Bagworm Case
Only adult males ever leave the case. The adult females are wingless and leave the case for mating or remains in the case
while the male extends his abdomen into the female's case to breed.
One species of female dies without laying eggs and the larval bagworm offspring emerge from
the parent's body. Some species are parthanogenic.

Fringed Heartwort (Ricciarpos natans) just surfaced from the winter underwater world.

Tiny hearts spreading across the surface of the pingo.

A complete lack of the purple ventral scales seen in the images below from last June. Clear new out growths seen on the floating bodies, which can be seen in the above image.

Slightly more clearly in the enlarged images here.
