Ugly Bug Faces

Dark Roasted Blend has a fantastic spread of ugly bug faces (are there any other kind of bug faces? -- that's a rhetorical and inciteful question, you bug lovers). A lot of them were taken by an electron microscope, and I recommend you check them out.

Here are some of the others. Please welcome the Antlion (aka doodlebug) for her debut on Ugly Overload. And then, of course, we have the ever-popular house centipede.

Thanks for the link, Mary, Annica, and Lee Ann.

  3. The house centipede has a very non-centipede-like face. Strange.

  5. Antlions... Hours of my life have been spent on my belly watching these guys at work. We actually got to study them in field school. Utterly fascinating.
