Scientists at a university in Australia have stumbled across a giant stick insect in the Wet Tropics region. Weighing in at 44 grams - about the weight of a golf ball and 40 centimeters long - the not-so-little creature is suspected to be the heaviest of its kind in the country. Two specimens of Acrophylla alta have been added to the Queensland Museum’s collection to aid future research.| #sticknation #Stickinsects #Australia #Giant | CGTNEurope

Foam is the only known vessel in Australian waters that was actively involved in the indentured labour trade of South Sea Islanders at the time it was wrecked. The ship lay hidden in just 6 metres of water for almost 90 years before being identified in 1982. 🫒 One of the most intriguing objects recovered?

A large and previously unknown stick insect has been discovered in the misty forests of Far North Queensland — and it might just be Australia's heaviest insect. ​ The giant stick insect has been named Acrophylla alta in a nod to its high-altitude habitat in the Atherton Tablelands. ​ James Cook University Adjunct Professor Angus Emmott and south-east Queensland scientist Ross Coulthard searched for the stick insect after they received a photograph of what they believed was an unknown species. ​
