ug number 27, the common Tiger Dragonfly, is conspicuously absent. One thought is that it is attracted to Tigerferns but needs a higher tier of flower than spotted. A better guess is that it is not attracted to Tigerferns, since DW reports always collecting this insect in new games, well before tier 4 is ever reached.
No progress on the common shiny blue beetle either. So basically, no progress
So it still remains a mystery.
addendum: with the following group of starter plants:
spotted reptans
bluestar maranta
citrus maranta
citrus maple
citrus astera
fourpetal ball cactus
citrus ball cactus
spotted ball cactus
jalapa ball cactus
both the common shiny blue beetle and the common Tiger Dragonfly made an appearance. just have to figure out which foliage or flower is responsible.
