This user is a special fucking snowflake and has no problems with that.

A biology nerd and amateur contributor from Melbourne, Australia. My areas of interest include spiders, brachyceran flies (especially Tapeigaster), orchids, and bryophytes. I primarily edit articles about plants and invertebrates and I really enjoy improving stubs. I take my username from the centipede genus Ethmostigmus and can be found under this same name on iNaturalist and in the unofficial Wikipedia Discord server.

My current focus is: destubbing the flora of the global south, fixing issues with IUCN Red List references

Thank you for taking the time to read and edit the articles I've worked on! ♥
