  • 1 It's All Geek to Me: Translating Names Of
    IT’S ALL GEEK TO ME: TRANSLATING NAMES OF INSECTARIUM ARTHROPODS Prof. J. Phineas Michaelson, O.M.P. U.S. Biological and Geological Survey of the Territories Central Post Office, Denver City, Colorado Territory [or Year 2016 c/o Kallima Consultants, Inc., PO Box 33084, Northglenn, CO 80233-0084] ABSTRACT Kids today! Why don’t they know the basics of Greek and Latin? Either they don’t pay attention in class, or in many cases schools just don’t teach these classic languages of science anymore. For those who are Latin and Greek-challenged, noted (fictional) Victorian entomologist and explorer, Prof. J. Phineas Michaelson, will present English translations of the scientific names that have been given to some of the popular common arthropods available for public exhibits. This paper will explore how species get their names, as well as a brief look at some of the naturalists that named them. INTRODUCTION Our education system just isn’t what it used to be. Classic languages such as Latin and Greek are no longer a part of standard curriculum. Unfortunately, this puts modern students of science at somewhat of a disadvantage compared to our predecessors when it comes to scientific names. In the insectarium world, Latin and Greek names are used for the arthropods that we display, but for most young entomologists, these words are just a challenge to pronounce and lack meaning. Working with arthropods, we all know that Entomology is the study of these animals. Sounding similar but totally different, Etymology is the study of the origin of words, and the history of word meaning.

  • Birth of Maria Sibylla Merian Naturalist and Artist Maria Sibylla Merian Was Born on April 2, 1647, in Frankfurt-Am- Main, Germany
    This Day in History… April 2, 1647 Birth of Maria Sibylla Merian Naturalist and artist Maria Sibylla Merian was born on April 2, 1647, in Frankfurt-am- Main, Germany. Merian spent her life studying insects and plants and capturing them in beautifully detailed paintings and drawings. Merian’s father was an engraver and publisher, but he died when she was three. Her mother remarried artist Jacob Marrel in 1651 and he encouraged her to paint and draw. When she was 13, Merian did her first painting of plants and insects based on live specimens she collected. She was fascinated by caterpillars and collected all she could find so she could witness how they changed into beautiful butterflies and moths. Merian married her stepfather’s apprentice, Johann Andreas Graff, in 1665 and they moved to Nuremberg in 1670. She The set of four Merian Botanicals stamps were continued to paint and design embroidery. She also gave drawing issued for Women’s lessons to the daughters of wealthy families. This helped raise her History Month in 1997. social standing while also giving her access to some of the area’s finest gardens, where she could continue to collect and study insects. While other female artists included insects in their paintings of flowers, few others bred or studied them like Merian did. She published her first book on insects in 1679, which focused on their metamorphosis. At the time, little was known about this process. Some This stamp pictures a people wrote about it, but most people believed they were “born of flowering pineapple mud” – having been born spontaneously.

  • Spider and Scorpion Case
    Spider and Scorpion case Black widow spider (Lactrodectus hesperus) Black widows are notorious spiders identified by the colored, hourglass-shaped mark on their abdomens. Several species answer to the name, and they are found in temperate regions around the world. This spider's bite is much feared because its venom is reported to be 15 times stronger than a rattlesnake's. In humans, bites produce muscle aches, nausea, and a paralysis of the diaphragm that can make breathing difficult; however, contrary to popular belief, most people who are bitten suffer no serious damage—let alone death. But bites can be fatal—usually to small children, the elderly, or the infirm. Fortunately, fatalities are fairly rare; the spiders are nonaggressive and bite only in self-defense, such as when someone accidentally sits on them. These spiders spin large webs in which females suspend a cocoon with hundreds of eggs. Spiderlings disperse soon after they leave their eggs, but the web remains. Black widow spiders also use their webs to ensnare their prey, which consists of flies, mosquitoes, grasshoppers, beetles, and caterpillars. Black widows are comb- footed spiders, which means they have bristles on their hind legs that they use to cover their prey with silk once it has been trapped. To feed, black widows puncture their insect prey with their fangs and administer digestive enzymes to the corpses. By using these enzymes, and their gnashing fangs, the spiders liquefy their prey's bodies and suck up the resulting fluid. Giant desert hairy scorpion (Hadrurus arizonensis) Hadrurus arizonensis is distributed throughout the Sonora and Mojave deserts.

Fennica 30: 90–96. https://doi.org/10.33338/ef.82927 The complete mitochondrial genome of a Chinese stag beetle, Prismognathus prossi, was generated using the Illumina next-generation sequencing. The mito- genome sequence is 15,984 bp in length, the nucleotide composition is A 36.6%, C 17.5%, T 34.3% and G 11.6% with the AT-content of 70.9%. The sequence has similar features with other reported insect mitogenomes, consisting of 13 protein- coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAgenes, two ribosomal RNAs and a control region. All of the protein-coding genes start with the typical ATN initiation codon except for COI. Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI) indi- cated that P. prossi share an affinity with Lucanus mazama, Lucanus fortunei and Cyclommatus vitalisi. J. Liu, Y.Y. Cao, S.J. Zhou, Y.J.
