  + Opiliones in Belgium Five years after the first publication on the internet I considered it necessary to publish a complete new version of this part of the site. New maps and species discussion based on a set of more than 31000 observations of Harvestmen. You won't like this section if you aren't gifted with a scientific mind.

We also added several new examples of adverts featuring penguins. - Een nieuw hoofdstuk over de grotere katten. Dat was niet eenvoudig. We zagen ons gedwongen om een ad-hoc team wetenschappers bijeen te roepen om te helpen met de determinaties. We hebben ook verschillende nieuwe reclames met pinguins toegevoegd.
