Berberomeloe Berberomeloe is a genus within the tribe Lyttini of the family Meloidae, the oil or blister beetles. It includes two species, the red-striped oil beetle, "Berberomeloe majalis", and the less flamboyant "Berberomeloe insignis". Until recently these species were included in the genus "Meloe", which is treated in the tribe Meloini; the placement of what was previously called "Meloe majalis" instead in a genus within the tribe Lyttini was proposed by Bologna (1988) and has commanded general acceptance. As Bologna notes, it had long been known that the larval development of the red-stripted oil beetle was very different from that of most species placed in "Meloe", so that some authors treated it within the Lyttini genus "Trichomeloe". However the species does not fit into any other genus of Lyttini, having a unique combination of autapomorphic characters, namely reduced elytra, no wings and modified antennae, so Bologna proposed the new genus. Bologna envisaged that other species currently placed in "Meloe" might be found to be anomalous once their larval development was studied in full. However, the addition of a second species to "Berbermeloe" came by a different route: García-Paris (1998). revived the name "insignis", which had been thought to be merely a synonym for "majalis", to describe a rare, distinct population endemic to the Spanish provinces of Granada, Almería and Murcia. Individuals of this type differed from typical "B. majalis" in several anatomical characteristics, and hence García-Paris argued that they should be given species status and should also be placed in "Berberomeloe". The genus 'Berberomeloe" is endemic to the Western Mediterranean, specifically the Iberian peninsula, France, Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.

Fourth Cambridge Survey The Fourth Cambridge Survey (4C) is an astronomical catalogue of celestial radio sources as measured at 178 MHz using the 4C Array. It was published in two parts, in 1965 (for declinations +20 to +40) and 1967 (declinations -7 to + 20 and +40 to +80), by the Radio Astronomy Group of the University of Cambridge. References to entries in this catalogue use the prefix 4C followed by the declination in degrees, followed by a period, and then followed by the source number on that declination strip, e.g. 4C-06.23.

Zebra spider The zebra back spider ("Salticus scenicus") is a common jumping spider of the Northern Hemisphere. Like other jumping spiders it does not build a web. It uses its four pairs of large eyes to locate and stalk its prey before pouncing on it. Their common name refers to their vivid black and white colouration, whilst their scientific name derives from "Salticus" from the Latin for “dancing”, in reference to their agility, and the Greek "scenicus", translating to “theatrical” or “of a decorative place,” in reference to the flashy, zebra-like coloration of the species.
