Bristly Rose Sawfly

The Bristly Rose Sawfly (Cladius pectinicornis) is a species in the genus Cladius. Typically found in virtually all terrestrial and freshwater habitats.

Iconic marsupial of eastern and southeastern Australia, koalas weigh up to 15 kg and spend up to 22 hours daily sleeping to conserve energy from their low-calorie eucalyptus leaf diet. Highly specialized to process toxic eucalyptus compounds that would kill most other mammals, they have gut microbiomes uniquely adapted for detoxification. Listed as Endangered in 2022, with populations decimated by chlamydia disease, habitat clearing, and climate change.
