Anostostoma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Rsfinlayson (talk | contribs) at 16:00, 4 September 2019 (It seems inappropriate to describe these insects as "wētā" (or "weta"), given that "wētā"/"weta" are endemic to New Zealand, but these insects (as per article and ref.) are "endemic to Australia". Also, the reference doesn't use the term "wētā" (or "weta"), at all. Pending another reference that states otherwise, it seems safer/more appropriate to simply refer to them as "insects".).
