Bombardier beetle.  African beetle that harvests water from mists via 
exoskeletal surface texture.  endosymbionts of termites.  life cycle of aphids. 
 Lacewing larvae that build portable housing from exoskeletons of prey (I once 
examined a moving pile of tiny ant heads, to find a lacewing larva inside).  
Grasshopper glaciers in the western U.S.  Probable extinction or at least 
virtual disappearance of Great Plains Locust rapidly following settlement by 
Europeans.

Just a few.  David McNeely
