Welcome to bugearchive! This is an archive for all queer terms and flags related to bugs and related animals, both real and fictional. Please tag us in your posts :) You can call us Ollie or Mantis collectively (he/it/void/gore, no they/them or you&, please)
Tags are singular (gender instead of genders, etc.) with the exception of "pronouns" and some scientific names
We tag as #term umbrella, #subcategories, #family name, #common name, #scientific name, #unspecified (if the term is not about a single species), #general (if the term simply mentions "bugs" or "insects"), #term name, and then any accessibility or warning tags (needs id, eyestrain, etc.)
Note that related animals that could be considered "bugs" but aren't insects will also be archived here, such as isopods, arachnids, centipedes, snails, worms, etc. These will be tagged with #insect-adjacent. Terms about animals like lobsters and shrimp will not be archived here, however.
