A giant THANK YOU! <3 xx
to all the non-UK buyers in my Etsy store, who have been so understanding about the Royal Mail international shipping stoppage. Everyone has been very kind, and I'm super grateful
UK Royal Mail has been hit by a ransomware attack, and have been unable to ship any overseas items for a week - we're still being told not to buy international shipping labels as at this morning. This is affecting UK sellers on Etsy, as well as a shedload of other businesses.
I hope the shipping outage will be resolved soon. Added to the practical problems of this, Etsy deprioritises sellers/takes away star seller status if we don't ship in time, and have given us almost no updates on if/how they will take the Royal Mail outage into account. In fact both Royal Mail and Etsy are giving out very little info right now. So pls continue being kind to any UK sellers you know who are affected by this - it's a craptastic shituation for everyone but we're doing our best xx

#2103 - Ceraon vitta
One more from the top of Mt. Ainsley, where like so many of the other insects I saw, was making a meal of the Acacias.
Originally described as Centrotus vitta in 1851, from a badly damaged holotype from an unknown location. 5 years latter the same entomologist described it as Oxyrhachus contorta, and a bit latter on in 1907 another entomologst named it Zanophara albovittata in the Bulletin of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association Experimental Station Entomological Series 3.
Ceraon was a demigod responsible for the mixing of wine in Greek myth, but I have no idea if that was relevent when they named the genus.
A Membracid from the wetter parts of SE Australia and Tasmania, where it's usually found on Acacia. Reasonably common.
Mt. Ainsley, ACT
