Nesagapostemon Nesagapostemon Nesagapostemon is an extinct monotypic genus of sweat bee in the Halictidae subfamily Halictinae. At present, it contains the single species "Nesagapostemon moronei". The genus name "Nesagapostemon" is derived from a combination of the Greek "nesos", meaning "island", and "Agapostemon", a very similar genus of halictids which may be related. The species is named in honor of Ettore Morone of Turin, Italy. The species is known from the holotype, a single long female currently in the private collection owned by Morone (catalog number MACT-1172), and which was first studied by Dr. Michael S. Engel. Engel published his type description
Gregory (given name) Gregory (given name) The masculine first name Gregory derives from the Latin name "Gregorius", which came from the late Greek name "Γρηγόριος" (Grēgorios) meaning "watchful, alert" (derived from Greek "γρηγoρεῖν" "grēgorein" meaning "to watch"). Through folk etymology, the name also became associated with Latin "grex" (stem "greg–") meaning "flock" or "herd". This association with a shepherd who diligently guides his flock contributed to the name's popularity among monks and popes. Sixteen popes and two antipopes have used the name "Gregorius", starting with Pope Gregory I (Gregory the Great). It is tied with Benedict as the second-most popular name for pope,
