#ElCapitan #mountain is where the #firewaterfall is suppose to happen but it was dry when we got there so we didn't get to see the glowing red that makes it look like it's on fire. Still a cool looking #giantrock where #freesolo #climber #alexhonnold did the climb with #norope #Yosemite #yosemitevalley #yosemitefalls #yosmitenationalpark #yosemitepark #tbt #tbt❤️ (at El Capitan, Yosemite) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9GWSFohRyx/?igshid=46cg1621x5h2

One of my research animals lost his tail a month ago in the shipping process. For some reason it’s coming back at an almost perfect right angle? He was not happy about having to get his measurements done a second time this summer

And barbarians were inventors not only of philosophy, but almost of every art. The Egyptians were the first to introduce astrology among men. Similarly also the Chaldeans. The Egyptians first showed how to burn lamps, and divided the year into twelve months, prohibited intercourse with women in the temples, and enacted that no one should enter the temples from a woman without bathing. Again, they were the inventors of geometry. There are some who say that the Carians invented prognostication by the stars. The Phrygians were the first who attended to the flight of birds. And the Tuscans, neighbours of Italy, were adepts at the art of the Haruspex. The Isaurians and the Arabians invented augury, as the Telmesians divination by dreams. The Etruscans invented the trumpet, and the Phrygians the flute. For Olympus and Marsyas were Phrygians. And Cadmus, the inventor of letters among the Greeks, as Euphorus says, was a Phoenician; whence also Herodotus writes that they were called Phoenician letters. And they say that the Phoenicians and the Syrians first invented letters; and that Apis, an aboriginal inhabitant of Egypt, invented the healing art before Io came into Egypt. But afterwards they say that Asclepius improved the art. Atlas the Libyan was the first who built a ship and navigated the sea. Kelmis and Damnaneus, Idaean Dactyli, first discovered iron in Cyprus. Another Idaean discovered the tempering of brass; according to Hesiod, a Scythian. The Thracians first invented what is called a scimitar (arph), -- it is a curved sword, -- and were the first to use shields on horseback. Similarly also the Illyrians invented the shield (pelth). Besides, they say that the Tuscans invented the art of moulding clay; and that Itanus (he was a Samnite) first fashioned the oblong shield (qureos). Cadmus the Phoenician invented stonecutting, and discovered the gold mines on the Pangaean mountain. Further, another nation, the Cappadocians, first invented the instrument called the nabla, and the Assyrians in the same way the dichord. The Carthaginians were the first that constructed a triterme; and it was built by Bosporus, an aboriginal. Medea, the daughter of Æetas, a Colchian, first invented the dyeing of hair. Besides, the Noropes (they are a Paeonian race, and are now called the Norici) worked copper, and were the first that purified iron. Amycus the king of the Bebryci was the first inventor of boxing-gloves. In music, Olympus the Mysian practised the Lydian harmony; and the people called Troglodytes invented the sambuca, a musical instrument. It is said that the crooked pipe was invented by Satyrus the Phrygian; likewise also diatonic harmony by Hyagnis, a Phrygian too; and notes by Olympus, a Phrygian; as also the Phrygian harmony, and the half-Phrygian and the half-Lydian, by Marsyas, who belonged to the same region as those mentioned above. And the Doric was invented by Thamyris the Thracian. We have heard that the Persians were the first who fashioned the chariot, and bed, and footstool; and the Sidonians the first to construct a trireme. The Sicilians, close to Italy, were the first inventors of the phorminx, which is not much inferior to the lyre. And they invented castanets. In the time of Semiramis queen of the Assyrians, they relate that linen garments were invented. And Hellanicus says that Atossa queen of the Persians was the first who composed a letter. These things are reported by Seame of Mitylene, Theophrastus of Ephesus, Cydippus of Mantinea also Antiphanes, Aristodemus, and Aristotle and besides these, Philostephanus, and also Strato the Peripatetic, in his books Concerning Inventions. I have added a few details from them, in order to confirm the inventive and practically useful genius of the barbarians, by whom the Greeks profited in their studies. And if any one objects to the barbarous language, Anacharsis says, "All the Greeks speak Scythian to me."

The National Park Service just announced the installation of an escalator to the top of THE Grand Teton. The park has seen a recent decline in visitors and is hoping the escalator will help boost visitor numbers by bringing them directly to the Park’s top attraction.

GÉNERO UROSTROPHUS

Urostrophus Vauterii

 Si bien la fisonomía de los urostrofos es igual a la de los pólicros aunque determinados individuos prescinden de las escamas ventrales. Aparte de que el género en cuestión difiere de los lemanctos por su menor delicadeza en los miembros y en la cola, se distingue también de ellos porque la región terminal del cuerpo es prebénsil y porque sus escamas están aquilladas.

Este último carácter impide también que se confundan los uróstrofos, con los norops que tienen la mayor parte de los caracteres de los lemantos con la papada de los pólicros.

La especie está dedicada al famoso viajero Vautier que era capaz de distinguirlos a primera vista.

Got a small population of Norops conspersus around our villa, and it’s been incredibly fun to see just how variable their coloration is!

Going free climbing tonight for the first time ever although my friend is an experienced climber,I however am the worlds clumsiest person so this could be interesting 😯

This Meyer's Anole (Norops johnmeyeri) hopes you have a roaring good week! This tiny lizard with a huge personality is found only in the forest around my @HondurasARCC frog rescue site in Cusuco National Park, Honduras.
