Webspinner
The order Embioptera, commonly known as webspinners or footspinners, are a small group of mostly tropical and subtropical insects, classified under the subclass Pterygota. The order has also been called Embiodea or Embiidina. More than 400 species in 11 families have been described, the oldest known fossils of the group being from the mid-Jurassic. Species are very similar in appearance, having long, flexible bodies, short legs, and only males having wings. Webspinners are gregarious, living subsocially in galleries of fine silk which they spin from glands on their forelegs. Members of these colonies are often related females and their offspring; adult males do not feed and die soon after mating. Males of some species have wings and are able to disperse, whereas the females remain near where they were hatched. Newly mated females may vacate the colony and found a new one nearby. Others may emerge to search for a new food source to which the galleries can be extended, but in g ...

Aposthonia Ceylonica
''Aposthonia ceylonica'' is a species of webspinner of the family Oligotomidae native to tropical Asia, Madagascar and Mauritius. In February 2019, a colony of this insect was identified in a greenhouse at the RHS Garden, Wisley, Surrey, England, on the roots of an orchid. It was thought that the insects had been accidentally introduced on plants imported from Thailand. Description The body of the adult is cylindrical in form, long, slender and flexible, adapted for the tubular galleries in which the insects live. It is about long and has a head longer than it is wide. The eyes are dark, and the female's eyes are smaller than those of the male. The first thoracic segment is smaller than the second and third. The female is mid-brown on the head, the basal three segments of the 15-segment antennae, the anterior part of the thorax and the fore-legs, while the rest of the insect is dark brown.
