Tord Tamerlan Teodor Thorell (3 May 1830 – 22 December 1901) was a Swedish arachnologist. Thorell studied spiders with Giacomo Doria at the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale de Genoa. He corresponded with other arachnologists, such as Octavius Pickard-Cambridge, Eugène Simon and Thomas Workman. He described more than 1,000 spider species during his time from the 1850 to 1900. Thorell wrote: ''On European Spiders'' (1869) and ''Synonym of European Spiders'' (1870-73). Taxonomic honors The Orb-weaver spider genus '' Thorellina'' and the jumping spider genus '' Thorelliola'' are named after him, as well as about 30 species of spiders: * '' Araneus thorelli'' (Roewer, 1942) (Myanmar) (Araneidae) * '' Gasteracantha thorelli'' Keyserling, 1864 (Madagascar) (Araneidae) * '' Leviellus thorelli'' (Ausserer, 1871) (Europe) (Araneidae) * ''Mandjelia thorelli'' (Raven, 1990) (Queensland) ( Barychelidae) * '' Clubiona thorelli'' Roewer, 1951 (Sumatra) (Clubionidae) * ''Malamatidia thorell ...

Belisana Australis
Belisama ( Gaulish ''Belesama''; epigraphically ) is a Celtic goddess. She was identified by Roman commentators with Minerva by '' interpretatio romana''. Name The Gaulish theonym ''Belesama'' has been traditionally interpreted as meaning 'the Very Bright', stemming from the Indo-European root ''*bʰelH-'' ('white, shining'; cf. Lith. ''báltas'' 'white', Greek φαλόσ ''phalós'' 'white', Arm. ''bal'' 'pallor', goth. ''bala'' 'grey') attached to the superlative suffix *-''isamā''. As for '' Belenos'', however, this theory has come under increasing criticism in contemporary scholarship. Xavier Delamarre notes that the proposed cognates stemming from ''*bʰelH-'' do not seem to connote 'shining', but rather 'white, grey, pale', and proposes to derive the name from the Gaulish root ''belo''- ('strong, powerful'), rendering ''Belesama'' as 'the Very Strong' (cf. Sanskrit ''baliṣṭhaḥ'' 'the strongest'). Alternatively, Peter Schrijver has conjectured a connection wit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
