Hymenoptera and the Contest
The contest is almost over. Hymenoptera is the latest (brilliant) suggestion, from ancient Greek. I'm not a Classicist and had to look it up. It means "membraned wing" and is a class of insects including wasps, bees, ants and others (see my comment in the previous post). The term was first coined by Karl Linnaeus in the 1700s, I think.
I've had many excellent suggestions for a better title than SpaceHive or a title for a sequel to SpaceHive. More are welcome.
Please ensure I have your email addie so I can send you the small prize.
