BANDARBAN DISCOVERY OF NEW INSECT SPECIES

Sanaa Imperialis is a colourful member of the cricket species, recently discovered for the first time in the world, in Bandarban, the hill tracts of eastern Bangladesh.
Brilliantly coloured to deter predators, with a false, leaf like appearance, news of the discovery has been circulated on the web, in wildlife extra.com
Bangladesh seems to be uncovering  a number of new and rare species, and , no doubt, despite the threat that hangs over so many of its very diverse species of wildlife, there are many more yet to be found.
