Beetle order of insects

Beetles are a group of insects that form the order Coleoptera, in the superorder Endopterygota. Their front pair of wings are hardened into wing-cases, elytra, distinguishing them from most other insects. The Coleoptera, with about 400,000 species, is the largest of all orders, constituting almost 40% of described insects and 25% of all known animal life-forms; new species are discovered frequently. The largest of all families, the Curculionidae (weevils) with some 80,000 member species, belongs to this order. Found in almost every habitat except the sea and the polar regions, they interact with their ecosystems in several ways: beetles often feed on plants and fungi, break down animal and plant debris, and eat other invertebrates. Some species are serious agricultural pests, such as the Colorado potato beetle, while others such as Coccinellidae eat aphids, scale insects, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects that damage crops.

Charles Joseph Gahan was an Irish entomologist who specialized in beetles particularly the Cerambycidae. He served as keeper at the department of entomology in the British Museum for thirteen years after Charles Owen Waterhouse.

<i>Un garibaldino al convento</i> 1942 film by Vittorio De Sica

Un garibaldino al convento is a 1942 Italian historical drama film directed by Vittorio De Sica. It is considered the work with which De Sica concludes the series of light comedies largely set in colleges and institutions for young girls and period costumes to enter into films of more contemporary and popular settings that will result in post-war neorealistic works. It was screened in November 1991 as part of a retrospective of De Sica's films at the Museum of Modern Art.

Eutaeniichthys gilli is a species of goby native to brackish waters of the northwestern Pacific Ocean from around Japan, the Korean Peninsula and the Yellow Sea. It is an inhabitant of estuarine tide pools where it can be found under rocks. This species grows to a length of 4 centimetres (1.6 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus. The generic name is a compound of eu meaning "good", taenia meaning "ribbon" or "tape", Eutaenia being a synonym of the garter snake genus Thamnophis, and ichthys, "fish". The specific name honours the American ichthyologist Theodore Gill (1837-1914) for his work on the gobies of Japan.
