Fwd: images of "curious" species needed

[Fabian Haas]

Dear all,

concerning the images: please chaeck out the http://www.piclease.com
site which is specialising in nature picture.

Concerning languages: I am running a website on earwig biology, with a
database for vernacular and common names (earwigs only), see
http://www.earwigs-online.de/databases.html

If anybody knows more names (142 already there) for Dermaptera in any
language, please tell me! I would be happy to include that. Naturally,
the origin of this information, i.e. your email and name will appear.

Best
Fabian
