Ctenophora ornata, man findet auch die Bezeichnung Cnemoncosis ornata,
ist eine Schnakenart aus der Gattung der Kammschnaken (Ctenophora).

Craneflies (Tipulidae) represent some of the more easily recognised insects,
but they are not always welcomed by people with a fear of them,
as their attraction to artificial light often leads to them turning up indoors.

Plus connues sous le nom de "cousins", les Tipules adultes ressemblent à d'énormes moustiques.
