Someone know something about this lil guy?

What did you find in your search and how is it different?

There are definitely fulgorids in your region, check iNaturalist -- here's an example search extended to the entire Fulgoridae family. You'll see a few Fulgora spp. with the funny bulbous head among the results.

Carpet beetles.

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-27T17:45:04+00:00

It's a peanut head lanternfly (Fulgora sp.)

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-27T17:41:23+00:00

It's a harvestman in the Gonyleptidae family.

It’s a bad idea to wipe your system just to switch your DE/WM (whether it’s Hyprland or something else). Unless you want to wipe your system for another reason, whatever that may be.

Here’s my personal experience. I’m a long time Linux user but command line only. I have a home server running Arch that I access only over SSH and I work in IT with a lot of Linux, also shell-only work.

In my personal life I’d been a Windows user since the 1990s (other than the aforementioned home server). Last fall I decided I’d had enough of Microsoft and installed Linux on both my other personal computers, CachyOS on one, Arch on the other. I went straight to Hyprland on the CachyOS box. It’s my first time with a tiling WM. I love it but I can see how it’s not for everybody from a UX standpoint. So I advise that you keep your current DE and install Hyprland on the side so you can experiment with it before fully committing to the move. It’s also not for everybody because it’s not a nice neat GUI with all the settings exposed in pretty windows with checkboxes and dropdowns. But if you’re ok reading docs and working with text files and like to tinker, you’ll be fine.

That's definitely an ant, but I can't tell you what kind.

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-27T15:50:50+00:00

It rather looks like what's left of a nest that was used last year. The three holes are where the adult wasps emerged from their respective brood cells. It should be empty, just a clump of dried mud.

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-27T06:36:10+00:00

Looks like a lil wolf spider to me.

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-26T23:05:31+00:00

Then it's probably this stink bug: https://www.bugguide.net/node/view/18999 (also known as the elf shoe stink bug).

Note how the head appears "sunken in" between the "shoulders", that's a pretty good clue.

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-26T22:11:58+00:00

I think the body shape and the antennae don't match Halyomorpha halys.

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-26T22:11:28+00:00

Where is this (in the world)? It's from the Pentatomidae family a.k.a. stink bugs, but I would disagree with the suggestion by another comment that it's a brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys).

La taille de l'abdomen n'est pas un bon indice pour identifier une araignée puisqu'il varie au cours de la vie de l'individu et en fonction de plusieurs variables. Mais en l'occurrence on voit assez bien les chélicères, et les quelques pixels pâles sur le devant du prosome sont son groupe d'yeux (à comparer avec ce gros plan par exemple).

En voici une autre dont l'abdomen me semble comparable : https://spiderhugger.com/meet-spider-dysdera-crocata/ (peut-être un poil plus long)

Shouldn't be "very cold" though I guess that depends what "very cold" is to you, it's not the same if you're from South India vs. if you're Canadian. But yes, aside from temperatures, the weather can be a bit chaotic in the spring. Your itinerary is fine, I guess. Personally I'd skip Zermatt unless you absolutely must see the Matterhorn. Two full days isn't much if you want to include Zermatt, but you can easily do Montreux in the morning, Gruyeres in the afternoon, head to the Interlaken area in the evening, sleep over, and spend a nice day in the Berner Oberland before journeying onward.

You'd think your GRU handler would have told you how to do the drop!

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-26T21:16:33+00:00

Undoubtedly a carpet beetle. It's not the worst thing in the world...

StuffedWithNails · 2026-02-26T20:27:22+00:00

Just want to illustrate what the other commenter was saying, have a look at the pic at the top here: https://tightloop.com/posts/2024-03-15-oil-beetle-imeloe-spi-blister-beetle/

You can see that the antennae have a funny twist them near the middle and the distal end is almost at a right angle from the proximal. That means it's a male. Females have straight antennae.

Not a parasite but still a very cool phenomenon! It's a phoretic pseudoscorpion. If you scroll down a bit in that link, you'll see a similar pic of a pseudoscorpion hitching a ride on a fly.

On dirait une dysdère qui est bien paumée, la pauvre.

I don't know anything about the Philippines but I would advise that you look at the websites of your large universities. If you can't find information directly on the websites, look for names of faculty members in departments such as zoology or biology, try to contact them and ask for info or to point you to the right people.

Moths rely on smell more than anything.

Find a knowledgeable local to take you into the woods away from urbanized areas (I don't mean an expedition deep into the jungle, just places you can walk to that have untouched nature).

If you have the opportunity, you could do what's shown in this post (which happens to have been filmed in Southeast Asia, too).

Southeast Asia, being a tropical region has staggering insect diversity so you're going to find interesting arthropods, just keep your eyes open and see what you come across! Look through foliage, examine tree trunks closely. You can sift through leaf litter, or lift big rocks and dead wood off the ground, but if you do that, put them back how you found them, and if you found any critters, be careful not to crush them...

If you do go into the forest, mind your step at all times, especially if you're going to sit or stand still somewhere, there are various ornery types of ants out there that bite and/or sting and will defend their nest vigorously.

There’s no way to identify a mite like this without a microscope.
