Hi! I believe it's a Compsocerus violaceus. Here in Argentina it is commonly known as "Santa Rita", and it belongs to family Cerambycidae (long-horned, wood boring bugs).\nCheck the photograph at the link just to be sure!

The Portuguese Man O' War (Physalia physalis), also known as the bluebubble or bluebottle, is commonly thought of as a jellyfish but is actually a siphonophore—a colony of four sorts of polyps.

Yes. I think it's called a transestoid or something like that. It's pretty nasty.

Once this was the standard way of forming the past participle of the verb clepe, to call (or, more strictly, its Old English precursor, cleopian). For the past few hundred years it has only turned up as a deliberately archaic form, mostly in poetry, or as light relief. It surfaces occasionally as ponderous humour in journalistic pieces, as here in the Jerusalem Post in 1997 (the name of the writer has been suppressed to protect the guilty): “The caption under the photo of the unfortunately yclept basketball player just makes matters worse: ‘David Putz dribbles away...’ ”. Such poppings-up are frequent enough that the word appears in most dictionaries today, even though it died out in the north of England about 1200 and lingered in the south and east only a little longer. It has been outside the mainstream of English for so long that the person credited with popularising it again (Gavin Douglas, a Scots poet and divine), wrote around the end of the fifteenth century. The initial y was once the standard way of marking the past participle: yclensed, yfastened, ypunched, and dozens of others. It was the Old English equivalent of a form which still exists, for example, as ge– in modern German. Advice to budding writers: best avoided!\n\nSo the answer to your question is 'called'

(1) Blue (butterfly) is the common name for any member of a group of butterflies belonging to the family Lycaenidae that also includes the coppers and hairstreaks.\n \n(2) They are small, with wingspans seldom exceeding 5 cm and include the smallest known species of butterfly, the North American pygmy blue, which has a wingspan of about 15 mm . \n\n(3) Although the name reflects the colour of their wings, many “blues” are in fact dark brown with a metallic blue sheen. The sexes are often very different in colour: the males brightly coloured with extensive blue scaling and the females brown or black with little trace of blue coloration

In insects that exhibit paurometabolous or hemimetabolous metamorphsosis (an 'incomplete' metamorhphosis in which there is no pupal stage), the juvenile stage (between egg and adult) is known as a nymph.  In aquatic forms, like dragonflies or mayflies, it is also sometimes referred to as a naeid.\n\nBTW:  Why is this in Earth Science?
