''Orestes ziegleri'' is a species of stick insect native to Thailand. Characteristics The only female known to date is long, with on the head, on the pronotum, on the mesonotum and fall into the median segment. The coloration is given as chocolate brown, whereas the photo of the living animal attached to the first description shows a very light, rather beige coloration, which corresponds to the darkening of adult females of other '' Orestes'' species. On the head there are two rows tubercles converging from the vertex towards the occiput. They each consist of three large tubercles, which correspond to the supraantennals, the anterior and posterior supraoccipitals. Domed part of the occiput also with two rows of three smaller tubercles each, converging backwards. The bulge itself has laterally flat tubercles. The cheeks (genae) behind with an approximately tooth-shaped, large tubercle. The eyes are hemispherically protruding. The first five tergite of the abdomen are equa ...

Oliver Zompro
Oliver Zompro is a German biologist who is credited with the discovery in 2002 of a new suborder of carnivorous African insects, Mantophasmatodea or "gladiators", which was originally considered to be a new insect order but was later relegated to subordinal status. Zompro initially described gladiators from old museum specimens that originally were found in Namibia (''Mantophasma zephyrum'') and Tanzania ('' M. subsolanum''), and from a 45-million-year-old specimen of Baltic amber ('' Raptophasma kerneggeri''). Live specimens were found in Namibia by an international expedition in early 2002; ''Tyrannophasma gladiator'' was found on the Brandberg Massif, and ''Mantophasma zephyrum ''Mantophasma zephyra'' is a species of insect in the family Mantophasmatidae. It is endemic to Namibia Namibia (, ), officially the Republic of Namibia, is a country in Southern Africa. Its western border is the Atlantic Ocean.

Entomologist
Entomology () is the scientific study of insects, a branch of zoology. In the past the term "insect" was less specific, and historically the definition of entomology would also include the study of animals in other arthropod groups, such as arachnids, myriapods, and crustaceans. This wider meaning may still be encountered in informal use. Like several of the other fields that are categorized within zoology, entomology is a taxon-based category; any form of scientific study in which there is a focus on insect-related inquiries is, by definition, entomology. Entomology therefore overlaps with a cross-section of topics as diverse as molecular genetics, behavior, neuroscience, biomechanics, biochemistry, systematics, physiology, developmental biology, ecology, morphology, and paleontology. Over 1.3 million insect species have been described, more than two-thirds of all known species. Some insect species date back to around 400 million years ago. They have many kinds of intera ...

Jerome Constant
Jerome (; la, Eusebius Sophronius Hieronymus; grc-gre, Εὐσέβιος Σωφρόνιος Ἱερώνυμος; – 30 September 420), also known as Jerome of Stridon, was a Christian priest, confessor, theologian, and historian; he is commonly known as Saint Jerome. Jerome was born at Stridon, a village near Emona on the border of Dalmatia and Pannonia. He is best known for his translation of the Bible into Latin (the translation that became known as the Vulgate) and his commentaries on the whole Bible. Jerome attempted to create a translation of the Old Testament based on a Hebrew version, rather than the Septuagint, as Latin Bible translations used to be performed before him. His list of writings is extensive, and beside his biblical works, he wrote polemical and historical essays, always from a theologian's perspective. Jerome was known for his teachings on Christian moral life, especially to those living in cosmopolitan centers such as Rome. In many cases, he focuse ...

Edward W
Edward is an English given name. It is derived from the Anglo-Saxon name ''Ēadweard'', composed of the elements '' ēad'' "wealth, fortune; prosperous" and '' weard'' "guardian, protector”. History The name Edward was very popular in Anglo-Saxon England, but the rule of the Norman and Plantagenet dynasties had effectively ended its use amongst the upper classes. The popularity of the name was revived when Henry III named his firstborn son, the future Edward I, as part of his efforts to promote a cult around Edward the Confessor, for whom Henry had a deep admiration. Variant forms The name has been adopted in the Iberian peninsula since the 15th century, due to Edward, King of Portugal, whose mother was English. The Spanish/Portuguese forms of the name are Eduardo and Duarte. Other variant forms include French Édouard, Italian Edoardo and Odoardo, German, Dutch, Czech and Romanian Eduard and Scandinavian Edvard. Short forms include Ed, Eddy, Eddie, Ted, Teddy and Ned.

Joachim Bresseel
Joachim (; ''Yəhōyāqīm'', "he whom Yahweh has set up"; ; ) was, according to Christian tradition, the husband of Saint Anne and the father of Mary, the mother of Jesus. The story of Joachim and Anne first appears in the Biblical apocryphal Gospel of James. His feast day is 26 July, a date shared with Saint Anne. In Christian tradition The story of Joachim, his wife Anne (or Anna), and the miraculous birth of their child Mary, the mother of Jesus, was told for the first time in the 2nd-century apocryphal infancy-gospel the Gospel of James (also called Protoevangelium of James). Joachim was a rich and pious man, who regularly gave to the poor. However, Charles Souvay, writing in the ''Catholic Encyclopedia'', says that the idea that Joachim possessed large herds and flocks is doubtful. At the temple, Joachim's sacrifice was rejected, as the couple's childlessness was interpreted as a sign of divine displeasure. Joachim consequently withdrew to the desert, where he fasted and ...

Orestes Guangxiensis
''Orestes guangxiensis'' is a representative of the genus '' Orestes (insect), Orestes''. Characteristics So far only females are known of ''Orestes guangxiensis''. In 2005 Paul D. Brock and Masaya Okada mistakenly described males of this species from Japan, Japanese island Miyako-jima. George Ho Wai-Chun assigned this to ''Pylaemenes japonicus'' described by him in 2016 (today's name ''Orestes japonicus''). The females are long and stocky in shape. Their basic color is usually a light beige or brown, which is complemented by almost white, brown and black patterns. The body surface is covered with small, mostly black tubercles. In the middle of the otherwise flat upper side of the Thorax (arthropod anatomy), thorax a weak carina can be seen. The comparatively short mesonotum is 2.5 times as long as the pronotum and thus significantly shorter than in longer species such as ''Orestes mouhotii'' or ''Orestes shirakii''. On the forehead that becomes narrower towards the top, the f ...
