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
Timon and Pumbaa "Bottom". As with many characters in "Lion King", Pumbaa's name derives from the East African language Swahili. In Swahili, "pumbaa (v.)" means "to be foolish, silly, weakminded, careless, negligent". Timon is one of the few characters whose name has no meaning in Swahili; "Timon" is a historical Greek name, taken to mean "he who respects". Timon's name may also possibly derive from Shakespeare's tragedy "Timon of Athens", another Shakespeare reference in a film which derives its plot from "Hamlet". Timon is a wise-cracking and self-absorbed meerkat who is known for claiming Pumbaa's ideas as his own, while Pumbaa has flatulence
