MOTH FAIRIES Fuseli's gothic vision of A Midsummer Night's Dream c.1793 celebrates uncanny hybridisation in the form of a tiny mothman who sports not only wings but the entire face and head of a moth; he also painted a moth-headed fairy child with a proboscis

I like teaching of Cambrian oddities!

Read about a new fossil: Mieridduryn ("bramble snout" in Welsh) for its spiky proboscis.

What if Nosepass was a monkey? Perhaps…a Proboscis monkey? Meet Nosape and Proboscape! Some normal type Pokémon, one of which is a family man.

Humming bird Hawk-moths have a proboscis (tongue) that’s longer than their body! That’s why they don’t need to land on a plant to feed, just like a Humming bird. https://t.co/PTIMWxAg9j

I find proboscis monkeys so gosh darn ugly, so I thought I'd draw them a bunch. I still find them rather hideous, but now I can kinda draw them?

Angraecum sesquipedale is known as the Christmas/Star of Bethlehem orchid as it flowers in December.

Charles Darwin believed that an undiscovered moth with an extraordinarily long proboscis pollinated it.

He would be proved correct 21 years after his death.

I just knew Butterflies have a swirly tube called Proboscis the they use to feed themselves. I thought they’re carrying a random ring with their mouth 😂

The prompt is “monstrous” so I’m sharing my Opabinia. I might not have thought of a 7 cm, long-extinct creature as monstrous, but a friend saw my sketch & asked nervously about it, so I imagine being smaller and meeting the 5-eyed critter with a clawed proboscis!

British Columbia. Opabinia likely caught prey with the grasping claws on the end of its long tubular proboscis (like an elephant's trunk). Even more astounding are the five eyes on stalks!
