Good day to everyone on the Hive blockchain!

![portada.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-129253/AK9PuprZZg2KL83QzjGiQrDpkVkqjUHrrvip6kWbYoidYsdFccti4tbwS7yJidZ.jpg) Here is another edition of **Insects of the World Curation Report** where we bring to you the bests out of the bests in the community. We all know that even among the panoply of posts that are published in the community daily, a few usually stand out.

Before going into the business of the day, it would do us a lot of good if we can refreshen our memory concerning what is required of us in the community. A user will do almost nothing wrong if they can stick to the following **RULES**: * There must be **multiple images** of the insect in question, shot from different angles by the author himself and capturing the essential features. Images should be well resolved and not edited in any form besides resizing. * Images must be accompanied by **DESCRIPTIVE TEXT** or a nice article relating to the images. The community is not photography, remember. Tell us something about the images you are posting. * The **SCIENTIFIC NAME** of your shown species should be written **in the title**. It is also **APPRECIATED** if you are adding a full identification and as many details as possible to your chosen species, such as **appearance, diet, peculiarities and more**. * **The chosen insect should be unique** in a way. 10 posts with images of the same species will definitely be boring. SO please avoid common insects except there is something unique about them that has rarely been seen in the community.

- Engagement is key! There is no community without engagement.

I continue to mow the grass in the river. While I was cutting with a knife, many insects were flying around me, and many kinds of butterflies were flying. I wanted only to cut the grass and do not want to take pictures of them today. it made me have to take pictures of it...

@teungkulik| Black Army Fly Insect (Hermetia illucens)| -----------|------------| ![imagen.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-129253/23tSPrwySokWZWegjk37Rt63WNRtv37ztwyEnNdS6mc79FVN1s42KxX7JBm7FKF3v6Fof.png) Hermetia illucens or Black Army Flies is a type of fly from the family Stratiomyidae with the genus Hermetia, species Hermetia illucens. To find this sport, of course, I have to look for piles of organic waste. I got this fly in a pile of sago pulp which I saw as organic fertilizer on potted plants...

@cosmictriage| The Branded Tussock Moth (when it's a fuzz ball)| -----------|------------| ![imagen.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/hive-129253/Ep7u2YUJwxsqMjqPYP4hGQJR88TnfPYeuf8kZTurPza2S8PyEQPqmAbUGDDaUdwAudx.png) Check out this wee beauty! It's another one of those "omigosh, I took a picture of it" moments from my archives. The Big Guy (my hubby) told me that this was a moth larvae when I saw it in our backyard last fall, and I couldn't believe that something this pretty was just a "common" moth...

In my land, amaranth is easily produced both in the lawn when it has not been cut for a long time, as well as on sidewalks, roadsides and abandoned buildings...

DNA - Densifying Nature-Appreciation

The Insects of the World Community is part of the awesome DNA project (Densifying Nature-Appreciation). DNA searches for **HIGH-QUALITY** posts that aim to **DESCRIBE** and determine the **BIODIVERSITY AROUND YOU** with added **EXPLANATIONS** and **INFORMATION**. For these informative posts DNA offers a **CURATION SERVICE** using the **@dna.org** account. It is also a **CURATION TRAIL**. At the moment DNA is also the home of **#amazingnature** hosted by **@adalger**, the **#aquaticsentinels** hosted by **@juanbg** for all posts about the marine world, the **#featheredfriends** hosted by the lovely **@melinda010100 🦢** for all you great posts about our feathered friends and the **#fungifriday** hosted by the amazing **@qwerrie 🍄** for all your posts about fungi and mushrooms ^^ .. But we hope that more nature related communities will join and participate in this gigantic and ambitious nature project, or maybe some Hiveans start their own little project there ;)
**[AMAZING NATURE COMMUNITY](https://peakd.com/c/hive-127788/created)**
**[AQUATIC SENTINELS COMMUNITY](https://peakd.com/c/hive-154473/created)**
**[FEATHERED FRIENDS COMMUNITY](https://peakd.com/c/hive-106444/created)**
**[FUNGI LOVERS COMMUNITY](https://peakd.com/c/hive-166168/created)**
All the communities have their own Moderators using the DNA-Curation service and and the whole AN Moderator Team also are set as DNA-Moderators. This external cross-community curation-service is hoped to raise awareness of the DNA project to Hiveans out there and aims to bring all the great nature-related communities together to help all the nature-loving Hiveans to bond together ^^ If you are **INTERESTED** in DNA, please do not hesitate to ask about it, or directly **JOIN US** in the **[DNA DISCORD](https://discordapp.com/invite/ATefGeY)** ;)
