Green Lacewing
Green lacewings are insects in the large family (biology), family Chrysopidae of the order (biology), order Neuroptera. There are about 85 genera and (differing between sources) 1,300–2,000 species in this widespread group. Members of the Genus, genera ''Chrysopa'' and ''Chrysoperla'' are very common in North America and Europe; they are very similarEngel & Grimaldi (2007) and many of their species have been moved from one genus to the other time and again, and in the nonscientific literature assignment to ''Chrysopa'' and ''Chrysoperla'' can rarely be relied upon. Since they are the most familiar neuropterans to many people, they are often simply called "lacewings". Since most of the diversity of Neuroptera are properly referred to as some sort of "lacewing", common lacewings is preferable. Description and ecology Green lacewings are delicate insects with a wingspan of 6 to over 65 mm, though the largest forms are tropical. They are characterized by a wide Costal vein, c ...

Green Lacewing Larva - Leucochrysa Species, Leesylvania State Park, Woodbridge, Virginia
Green is the color between cyan and yellow on the visible spectrum. It is evoked by light which has a dominant wavelength of roughly 495570 nm. In subtractive color systems, used in painting and color printing, it is created by a combination of yellow and cyan; in the RGB color model, used on television and computer screens, it is one of the additive primary colors, along with red and blue, which are mixed in different combinations to create all other colors. By far the largest contributor to green in nature is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize and convert sunlight into chemical energy. Many creatures have adapted to their green environments by taking on a green hue themselves as camouflage. Several minerals have a green color, including the emerald, which is colored green by its chromium content. During post-classical and early modern Europe, green was the color commonly associated with wealth, merchants, bankers, and the gentry, while red was ...

Neula (lacewing)
Neula (, plural: ) is a type of Catalan biscuit, eaten traditionally in Christmas with cava (Catalan champagne) and '' torró''. They are often dipped into cava. It consists of a very thin sheet of a mixture of egg whites, butter, sugar and flour, flavoured with lemon and rolled. At present there are some other popular versions, as neules stuffed with torró de Xixona or others covered with a chocolate lay. At present, although they are typical on Christmas, they can sometimes be eaten during the rest of the year, for example with ''crema catalana'' or ice creams. Origin The noun ''neula'' comes from Latin ''nebula'', meaning ''fog'', because of its fine and light texture. Some documents show that neules existed before ''torró'', and ''torró'' has been shown to exist at least in the Middle Ages and was eaten, for example, at Jaume I's daughter's wedding. Elaboration Making neules at home, because of their lightness and slimness, is not easy so they are usually bought by C ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
