Minggu ini (seolah-olah saya bersaing dengan ini setiap minggu) GOP telah dihantar kepada saya oleh commenter “Ditumbangkan“. Terima kasih kerana sumbangan! Membuat seperti lebih mudah, dan saya amat menggalakkan penyertaan masa hadapan daripada pembaca lain.
Bagi mereka yang baru ke blog saya – the Genius of the Press series is a contest to see who can identify the blatant errors of the press. So what’s wrong with the article below?
From the pages of Science News:
We get this gem.
Thats a horse-headed grasshopper nymph. Maybe Proscopia luceomaculata?
Bingo – although you have a better species guess than I had come up with! It is indeed a Proscopiidae, a very strange group of Orthoptera that look like sticks. It’s a shame that Science News would get an order of insects wrong, but not surprising.
Those things are royally weird. I hope I can run into one for real some day.
