American service maintains amazing gallery of insects and spiders

Insects are among the most disliked and also curious animals in the world. Despite the buzzing and possible bites, many have such a look of their own that they seem to have come out of science fiction movies. And we're not just talking about the antennae and the many legs carried by these little creatures, but the really amazing sparkles, fur and body formations.

To get an idea of ​​the variety of colors and shapes, just visit the photo gallery of the US Geological Survey's Bee Monitoring and Inventory Laboratory. In addition to insects, spiders, flowers and even snakes are also present, and all images are in high definition and can be used freely, thanks to the license under which they are released: Creative Commons.
