Sabhyata Dwar

The Sabhyata Dwar or Civilization Gate is a sandstone arch monument located on the banks on River Ganga in the city of Patna in the Indian state of Bihar. The Sabhyata Dwar is built with a Mauryan-style architecture with a purpose to show the ancient glory of Pataliputra and traditions and culture of the state of Bihar. The monument was first envisioned by the former Lieutenant General Srinivas Kumar Sinha. The 32 metres (105 ft) high structure is taller than Gateway of India by 6 metres (20 ft) and was built at a cost of ₹ 5 crore (50 million). The monument is spread over an area of one acre within the campus of Samrat Ashok International Convention Centre. The arches of the Dwar contain inscriptions attributed to Megasthenes, Ashoka, Buddha and Mahavira. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar inaugurated the monument on 21 May 2018.
The idea for constructing a Gateway of India like structure was pitched by the former Jammu and Kashmir Governor Retired Lieutenant General Srinivas Kumar Sinha (SK Sinha) in 2010. SK Sinha suggested the idea to build a Sabhyata Dwar (Civilisation Gate) near the residence of City Superintendent of Police on the banks of River Ganga to show how the river port of Pataliputra attracted people from across the world.
On 8 February 2014, foundation stone of Samrat Ashok International Convention Centre was laid by the then Chief Minister of Bihar Nitish Kumar of which the Sabhyata Dwar was a part of. The plan of the building was drawn by a Delhi based firm. Construction of the monument was done by the building and construction department of the Bihar government. On 21 May 2018, Sabhyata Dwar was inaugurated by the Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. The cost of construction of the project is ₹ 5 crore (50 million).
The Sabhyata Dwar is built on an area of one acre within the campus of Samrat Ashok International Convention Centre, north of Gandhi Maidan. At 32 metres (105 ft) high the structure is taller than Gateway of India (26 metres (85 ft)) and Golghar (29 metres (95 ft)). The Dwar faces Ganga on its northern side. It consists of two arches built with Mauryan architecture with a smaller arch on either side. The structure is constructed from red and white sandstones. Atop the arch monument is a small stupa upon which rests Ashoka's four-sided lion capital made from alloyed metal. The northern and southern faces of the arches contain inscriptions attributed to Megasthenes, Ashoka, Buddha and Mahavira.
Coromandel Express

The 12841 / 12842 Coromandel Express is a superfast express train of Indian Railways. The train runs down the east coast of India between Shalimar railway station, West Bengal, and M. G. R Chennai Central railway station, Tamil Nadu. The train service is run by South Eastern Railway zone. The route travels across the eastern coast of India along the Bay of Bengal, called the Coromandel Coast, so giving the service its name.
The train was first run on 6 March 1977 as a bi-weekly train between (then) Madras and Howrah. The Coromandel Express was designed to be the equivalent of the Rajdhani Expresses running through the Coromandel Coast. At the time the train had a dining car and library. Over time a cinema was introduced. Whilst initially going to Howrah Station, the West Bengal terminus was eventually moved to Shalimar.
The route uses the Howrah–Chennai main line along the East Coast of India. The route includes a non-stop run between Vijayawada and Chennai, and it runs up to Visakhapatnam with two stops at Eluru and Rajahmundry. The other stops are Brahmapur, Khurda Road, Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Bhadrak, Balasore and Kharagpur.

World Mosquito Day

World Mosquito Day, observed annually on 20 August, is a commemoration of British doctor Sir Ronald Ross's discovery in 1897 that female anopheline mosquitoes transmit malaria between humans. Prior to the discovery of the transmitting organism, vector, there were few means for controlling the spread of the disease although the discovery of quinine in treatment had alleviated the problem of treatment. According to one survey, nearly half the world population was at significant risk from malaria in the 19th century with a 10% mortality among those infected. Ross had already conducted experiments with Culex (possibly C. fatigans) fed on birds infected with bird malaria Protesoma relictum (now Plasmodium relictum) in 1894 and noted that they developed in mosquito gut and had surmised that the same may happen in malaria. The discovery was made in a small laboratory in Begumpet area of Secunderabad, Hyderabad. Today the laboratory is known as the Sir Ronald Ross Institute of Parasitology and houses a small museum on Ross and his malaria research. Ross had noted the day of the discovery made in Secunderabad (printed incorrectly as 1895, but definitely 1897 based on his postings).
The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine holds Mosquito Day celebrations every year, including events such as parties and exhibitions, a tradition dating back to as early as the 1930s.
List of cities by sunshine duration

The following is a list of cities by sunshine duration. Sunshine duration is a climatological indicator, measuring duration of sunshine in given period (usually, a day or a year) for a given location on Earth, typically expressed as an averaged value over several years. It is a general indicator of cloudiness of a location, and thus differs from insolation, which measures the total energy delivered by sunlight over a given period.
Sunshine duration is usually expressed in hours per year, or in (average) hours per day. The first measure indicates the general sunniness of a location compared with other places, while the latter allows for comparison of sunshine in various seasons in the same location. Another often-used measure is percentage ratio of recorded bright sunshine duration and daylight duration in the observed period.
Wet grinder

A wet grinder can refer either to a tool for abrasive cutting of hard materials or to a food preparation appliance used especially in Indian cuisine for grinding food grains to produce a paste or batter. A wet grinder for abrasive cutting uses fluid for lubrication or cooling; for food preparation, a wet grinder combines water to grain as it is ground to produce a batter.
The tabletop wet grinder is derived from the melanger, which was developed by the chocolate industry in the early 19th century.
Some angle grinders, most tile saws, and some grinders for sharpening blades used in woodworking are wet grinders. The fluid helps with lubrication of the cutting process and with cooling to avoid cracking or damaging the cutting tool or the workpiece.
Wet grinding is rare in western cuisine but common in Indian cuisine. Wet grinders are used to make pastes from grains and lentils and is used extensively in South Indian cuisine for preparation of popular dishes such as dosa, idly, vada, appam and paniyaram. It consists of a granite stones which rotate inside a metal drum with the help of an electric motor and the food grains get crushed between the stone and drum. Wet grinders have two advantages over electric mixers or blenders. First, the stone grinder generates less heat than a mixer; heat affects the flavor of the food. Second, the stones remain sharp for a greater time than do metal blades.
Originally stones manually operated, modern wet grinders are available for both home usage and larger-scale commercial production. A wet grinder consists of granite stones rotating inside a metal drum with the help of an electric motor. Food grains are crushed between stones in the drum. Modern wet grinders may use grinding stones that are circular or conical. Wet grinders have some advantages over electric mixers or blenders. A stone grinder generates less heat than a mixer, and heat can affect the flavor of the food. Unlike mixers, which cut food into smaller pieces, a wet grinder crushes the food, resulting in different consistency.
In 2005, the Government of Tamil Nadu applied for Geographical Indication for Coimbatore wet grinder. Wet grinders are largely manufactured in Coimbatore because granite is easily available in this region. Beginning in March 2006, the label "Coimbatore Wet Grinder" is a registered geographical indication for Tamil Nadu.
Neopithecops zalmora

Neopithecops zalmora, the Quaker, is a small butterfly found in South Asia and Southeast Asia that belongs to the lycaenids or blues family.
The subspecies of Neopithecops zalmora are-
Upperside of both sexes dark purplish brown; in the female slightly paler on the disc of the forewing. In most specimens, but not in all, the male also has the disc of the forewing similarly paler. Underside; white. Forewing: apex dusky brown, apices of veins 10, 11 and 12 with a minute black dot; no discal markings, but the discocellulars picked out with a short, very slender, obscure brown line; a postdiscal, irregular, transverse series of slender brown lunules, followed by a transverse, very slender, sinuous brown line, the white ground colour in the interspaces beyond centred by a subterminal series of transverse black spots.
Hindwing: discocellulars with a short brown line similar to that on the forewing, followed by a subdorsal small round black spot, and a subcostal much larger similar spot; between these two spots is a curved, very irregular line of detached pale ashy-brown lunules; the subterminal markings very similar to those on the forewing. Cilia of forewing dusky brown, of hindwing white. Antenna, head, thorax and abdomen dark brown; the antenna on the inner side speckled with white; beneath; the palpi, thorax and abdomen white.
Differs from specimens of the wet-season brood as follows:
Upperside: ground colour not so dark generally. Forewing: a large oval snow-white spot placed obliquely on the disc. Hindwing: apex and disc irregularly white; on the posterior half the ground colour a shade darker than on the anterior half.
Underside: ground colour and markings similar to those of specimens of the wet-season brood, but the markings very much paler and fainter; in specimens taken in the middle of the dry season in exceptionally dry localities these markings are altogether absent. Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen on the upperside paler than in the wet-season brood.
India: Eastern Himalayas; Bengal: Orissa; Western Ghats; Sri Lanka; Assam; Myanmar; Tenasserim; the Andamans; extending into the Malay Peninsula.
The larvae are known to feed on Diospyros (Ebenaceae) and many species of Glycosmis (Rutaceae) including G. arborea, G. parviflora and G. pentaphylla.
The 42 (Kolkata)

The 42 is a residential skyscraper in Kolkata, in the state of West Bengal, India. It is located on Chowringhee Road, the central business district of the city, between the commercial building of Tata Centre and the residential building of Jeevan Sudha. It was first proposed in 2008 but construction was delayed for nearly two years. The construction was completed in 2019, making it the tallest building in the country at that time.
It is the tallest completed building in India outside of Mumbai, and the 15th tallest building in the country overall.
The premises originally belonged to the Maharaja of Darbhanga.
Planned by developers Mani Group, Salarpuria Sattva Group, Alcove Realty & Diamond Group, to be Kolkata's tallest residential building. Located on Chowringhee Road, in the middle of the city, the skyscraper has 65 floors.
The developers of The 42 have faced a civil suit in the Calcutta High Court filed by ITC Limited, the owners of the adjoining 'Fountain Court' property. The suit filed by ITC claims that ITC's right to receive light and air will be violated by the 65-storeyed residential building being constructed to the west of its 'Fountain Court' property. On 19 August 2013, the Calcutta High Court passed an order that any steps taken by the developers would be subject to the outcome of the case filed by ITC. On 8 May 2014, the Court ordered that the developers of The 42 should not proceed with the construction at a pace to defeat the interests of ITC. (Calcutta High Court, GA Case No 2698 / 2013) The matter is pending before the Calcutta High Court.
Atmosphere (Kolkata)

Atmosphere is a luxury residential superstructure in Kolkata, India. Atmosphere consists of two tall towers and a 'Deya', the world's first residential floating sky sculpture.
Sitting 500 ft in the air, 'Deya' connects the two towers that make up Atmosphere. Deya houses club facilities for the residents of Atmosphere. Initially conceived as a cloud changing in porosity and form, Deya is not a physical extension of the tower as such, since the majority of the spaces within are open air. The skin is composed of expanded mesh panels wrapped around structural ribs. Special panels carrying shimmering mobile reflective disks are scattered across this mesh. The porosity of these materials enables Deya to appear different in form depending on how it is lit. The Deya will house the residents' community and recreational facilities, including a swimming pool, gymnasium, spas, running track, sporting facilities, virtual golf, cinema, meeting spaces and function facilities.
Atmosphere featured in Nat Geo's Megastructures documentary series.
World Trade Centre Kolkata

The World Trade Centre Kolkata is an under-construction commercial building in the Biddhannagar, Kolkata in the Indian state of West Bengal. It will consist of multiple towers. The location is close to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport.
The first WTC was proposed in 1990 in a 223- Acre plot in East Kolkata with corporate offices, residential space, shopping centers and golf courses. But the project did not succeed since it would cover up the East Kolkata wetlands which were protected by court order.
The Chief Minister of West Bengal in 2013 had shown keen interest in establishing a World Trade Centre (WTC) in Kolkata. For this, Pawan Dhoot, Managing Director, Dhoot Group, invited Eric Dahl, CEO of World Trade Center's Association (WTCA), the largest international trade association and the government ministers and officials in Kolkata. The ground work related to the project never really started under the Dhoot led consortium.
Merlin Group later in 2023 announced their partnership with the World Trade Centers Association to develop the World Trade Center in Kolkata which would cover an area of 3.5 million square feet. The project’s License Agreement was signed by Scott Wang, Vice President of the World Trade Centers Association (WTCA) Asia Pacific region, and Merlin Group’s Chairman, Sushil Mohta, and Managing Director, Saket Mohta. Approximately ₹1,500 crore investment proposal was initialized by the company for the implementation of the project. Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee, during the industry enclave meet in Mumbai, was approached by the promoters of World Trade Centre Mumbai with a proposal to erect a similar structure in Kolkata.
Merlin Group initialized the development of World Trade Centre project in a 10.5 Acre plot in the Nabadiganta Industrial Township Authority (NDITA) area, Salt Lake Sector V, Kolkata.
The company accessed the prime land which once belonged to Kitchen Appliances India Ltd, a Videocon group entity, through insolvency resolution. Aryan Mining was the successful resolution applicant for KAIL. The owners of Aryan Mining, are related to the Mohta family of the Merlin Group by marriage. Hence, both the firms decided to join hands for completion of the project.
Phase I of the entire project is planned to be completed by 2nd half of 2025.
Mahasweta Chakraborty

Mahasweta Chakraborty is an Indian aircraft pilot from New Town, Kolkata. During the COVID-19 pandemic in India, she assisted in the Vande Bharat Mission that transported oxygen concentrators from China and Hong Kong to several Indian cities. During the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, she helped evacuate around 800 Indian students from the borders of Poland and Hungary as part of Operation Ganga.
Mahasweta Chakraborty was born in 1998, the only child of Tanuja Chakraborty, president of West Bengal's women's wing of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Having listened to stories of her parents growing up in Ashoknagar in North 24 Parganas, where there are World War II hangars, she aspired to becoming a pilot. She attended Auxilium Convent School and later graduated from the Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Uran Akademi to become an aircraft pilot.
Chakraborty made her first flight at the age of 17. During the COVID-19 pandemic in India, she assisted in the Vande Bharat Mission that transported oxygen concentrators and other medical equipment from China and Hong Kong to several cities in India.
By 2022, she had been flying with a private airline company for four years. That year, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, she helped evacuate around 800 Indian students from the borders of Poland and Hungary as part of Operation Ganga. The evacuation was accomplished in six sorties between 27 February and 7 March. It was operated from Istanbul, from where she flew the Airbus A320. She told The Telegraph that "Operation Ganga has shown me the things that really matter in life. When you see people who've made it through after walking for miles in sub-zero temperatures without food, shelter or support, you realise how trivial most of our everyday problems are." On returning to Kolkata, her story was widely told on social media in India, and she received favourable comments from police officials, politicians, journalists, and the cricketer Sourav Ganguly. Her response was that she was no exception and that "several other pilots are doing the same job and theirs is no less of an achievement. Then there are the other staff members who make a mission possible, everyone from the cabin crew to the loaders. Without a proper team, none of this can happen."
Chakraborty has worked with non-governmental agencies linked to women's rights and assisting abandoned children. Her interests as noted in an interview include Rabindra Sangeet, pottery, and Marvel.
In 2022, the Rotary Club of Calcutta Metro City awarded Chakraborty the Swayam Siddha award, for her actions being a role model for empowering women.

Charents Arch

40°10′25″N 44°38′12″E﻿ / ﻿40.17361°N 44.63667°E﻿ / 40.17361; 44.63667
Charents' Arch, also known as Arch of Charents or Arch of Ararat (Armenian: Չարենցի կամար) is a monument and tourist attraction erected in 1957 and dedicated to the Armenian poet Yeghishe Charents. The monument is located 1500 m high in the village of Voghjaberd in the Kotayk Province of Armenia.
The person who created the arch was Rafayel Israyelian. He decided to make the arch out of basalt for the exterior and the native orange tuff for the interior. The monument was also made in a rectangular shape with its dimensions being 5.5 x 10 m and a height of 5 m. The arch itself also has a radius of 3.5 m.
The arch has a quote from Charents poem named "I Love My Sweet Armenia's..." engraved in it, which says:
"There is no summit as snow-white as that of lofty Ararat;
Like an inaccessible path to glory, I love my Mount Masis!"
The place where the arch was built was known to be one of Charents favourite places. It was at a point where people thought that he had been shot and buried at this location. The idea of the arch came to Israelyan as he was visiting the Garni-Geghard road, when he went and climbed the hill and was so surprised of the view that he decided to build the arch there. The arch was completed and erected in 1957.
The monument is significant due to its view of places important to Armenia, with the main ones being Mount Ararat and Yerevan.
The monument also has significance in being one of if not the first monument to someone who was a victim of the Great Purge as Charents had his works banned, was arrested by the Armenian communist government and later died imprisoned in 1937.
Neutrality Monument

The Monument of Neutrality (Turkmen: Bitaraplyk binasy) is a monument and observation tower located in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan. The three-legged arch, which became known locally as "The Tripod", was 75 metres (246 ft) tall and was built in 1998 on the orders of President Saparmurat Niyazov to commemorate the country's official position of neutrality. It was constructed by Turkish construction firm Polimeks at a cost of $12 million.
Originally located in central Ashgabat, the monument was one of the tallest buildings in the city, being taller than the nearby Presidential Palace. It was topped by an illuminated 12-metre (39 ft) tall gold-plated statue of Niyazov which rotated to always face the sun. The monument features a panoramic viewing platform for visitors, accessible by inclined elevators built into the arch's legs.
In 2010, the monument was dismantled and moved to the suburbs in the city's southern end, where it was reassembled and still stands.
On 18 January 2010, Niyazov's successor, President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow, signed a decree to dismantle and move the monument out of central Ashgabat. There were reports that it would be dismantled as early as 2008, but Berdimuhamedow did not approve the move until 2010. The dismantling was officially said to be a move to improve urban design in Ashgabat, but is seen as part of Berdimuhamedow's campaign to remove the excesses of the personality cult that Niyazov had created during his two decades of totalitarian rule. Niyazov also named cities and infrastructure after himself, and ordered the construction of an "ice palace" and a 40-metre (130 ft) tall pyramid, but the monument and its gold-plated statue have been described as the most notorious symbol of his legacy.
In 2010, Berdimuhamedow appointed Polimeks to dismantle the monument and move it to the suburbs in Ashgabat's southern end. The removal of Niyazov's statue was completed on 26 August 2010, although it was then placed back after the monument was moved. The statue no longer rotates, but the viewing platform is still usually open for visitors.
Starting in February 2025, the Neutrality Monument in Ashgabat will undergo renovation as part of preparations for the 30th anniversary of Turkmenistan’s neutrality and the designation of 2025 as the International Year of Peace and Trust. The project includes improvements to the surrounding area, landscaping with suitable greenery, modernization of transport infrastructure with innovative technologies, and an upgraded lighting system. The design will also incorporate elements reflecting the colors of the UN flag.

Jimador

El jimador es un tipo de agricultor originario de México que se dedica a cosechar plantas de agave, principalmente para la elaboración de tequila, sotol y mezcal. Esta tarea requiere la habilidad de identificar el agave maduro (entre 8 y 12 años). El agave inmaduro puede tener un sabor amargo o demasiado dulce, arruinando los aguardientes elaborados a partir de él. La herramienta principal de un jimador es la coa de jima o diversos tipos de hoz. La coa para jimar es un cuchillo de hoja plana en el extremo de un poste largo que se asemeja a una azada. La coa se utiliza para eliminar primero la flor del agave, que hace que la piña central se hinche. Más tarde, la piña se cosecha, utilizando la misma herramienta para cortar todas las hojas exteriores de la planta, dejando sólo el centro pulposo que luego se corta y se cuece en la preparación para la producción de mezcal o tequila.

La historia del señorío es antigua, comienza en el año 1910, cuando el rico banquero parisiense Alfred-Théodore Courmes hizo construir un bonito chalet de estilo Art nouveau rodeado de un jardín exótico así como de una monumental pérgola.​
En 1940 la Sra. Courmes vendió la finca al ingeniero aeronáutico Henri Potez, que restauró los edificios y construyó una escalera desde la pérgola hasta el mar.
Con un personal de diez jardineros, el jardín fue ampliado y mejorado, y en 1948 contuvo casi 400 especies. Sin embargo cayó en negligencia y fue abandonado posteriormente hacia finales de los años sesenta.
El conjunto cubre una superficie de siete hectáreas y se salvó de la especulación inmobiliaria en 1989 gracias al "Conservatoire de l’espace littoral et des rivages lacustres" (Conservatorio del espacio litoral y las orillas lacustres).
Desde esta fecha el jardín ha sido totalmente rediseñado por el paisajista Gilles Clément.​ Elaboró en este espacio privilegiado un mosáico de jardines de tipo mediterráneo: californiano (cactus, etc), sudafricano, australiano (eucalipto, etc), neozelandés (helechos arborescentes, etc), chileno (cactus, etc)..
En la actualidad el jardín ha sido reacondicionado en secciones donde se representan:
La pequeña playa de la finca es el punto de partida de un original y pasionante descubrimiento de la vida submarina en el Mediterráneo. Esta visita, acompañada por monitores del Conservatorio, se precede de una presentación de las principales especies marinas susceptibles de encontrarse, de sus especificidades y la mejor manera de reconocerlos en su medio.

Dan + Shay (álbum)

Dan + Shay es el tercer álbum homónimo del dúo de música country estadounidense Dan + Shay. Fue lanzado el 22 de junio de 2018 a través de Warner Bros. Records Nashville. El álbum incluye el sencillo «Tequila».
El dúo anunció la lista de canciones a través de las redes sociales en mayo de 2018. Además del primer sencillo «Tequila», anunciaron que el álbum contendría a dúo con Kelly Clarkson.​ El miembro del grupo Dan Smyers le dijo a Taste of Country: «Siento que esta es la primera vez que realmente lo contamos contando nuestra historia, diciendo lo que queremos decir y poniendo las canciones que suenan como queremos sonar y cómo queremos ser percibido. Se siente realmente especial, todo el trabajo».​
Cillea Houghton de Sounds Like Nashville revisó el álbum con beneplácito, afirmando que «no solo demuestra cómo han evolucionado musicalmente en su álbum homónimo, sino que demuestra la pureza que reside en su composición».​ Recibió 3.5 de 5 estrellas de Rolling Stone, cuyo Jon Freeman escribió que el dúo «mantiene su enfoque discreto, deleitándose en placeres domésticos simples y proporcionando un recordatorio para detenerse y respirar».​ Calificándolo 3 de 5 estrellas, Stephen Thomas Erlewine de Allmusic fue más variado, diciendo que el álbum «puede no ser mucho más que un fondo de pantalla aural, pero eso es todo lo que debe ser y, en ese nivel, está bien ejecutado: es tan liso y suave, no hace un sencillo wave».​
Comadia redtenbacheri

El chilocuil, chinicuil (del náhuatl chilocuilin "gusano de chile"),​ metchikuil, techol, gusano de maguey o gusano rojo de maguey (Comadia redtenbacheri) es una especie de lepidóptero ditrisio de la familia de los cósidos nativa de América del Norte, donde habita en general zonas áridas y desérticas.​
Los adultos son de hábitos nocturnos y, como la mayoría de las polillas, son atraídos por las luces nocturnas. Al igual que otros cósidos, presentan un cuerpo relativamente grueso, antenas bipectinadas con el ápice filiforme, espiritrompa atrofiada y palpos cortos. Las alas presentan nervación completa, aunque primitiva, con una areola en las anteriores. El ducto en el que el macho deposita el espermatóforo durante la cópula está conectado a la bursa copulatrix por un canal separado del vestibulum en el que desemboca la cloaca.​
Las larvas del chinicuil son unas orugas de color rojizo y hasta 5 cm de largo, con la piel virtualmente libre de pilosidades; de hábito endófito, son una plaga que ataca al maguey (en especial las especies Agave angustifolia y Agave salmiana) durante la temporada lluviosa, royendo los tallos y horadando las hojas para alcanzar el interior suculento. El color y la textura de los huevos se asemejan a los de las hojas secas, lo que podría ayudar con el camuflaje. Cuando las hembras no se aparean, todavía ponen entre un par de huevos y más de 40, todos los cuales son inviables. Algunas hembras ponen sus huevos en plantas que ya han sido infestadas en ciclos anteriores. La cabeza está parcialmente retraída hacia el tórax y el cuerpo está ligeramente aplanado dorsoventralmente. Los primeros estadios son blancos, ya partir del tercero o cuarto estadio van adquiriendo una coloración rosada que se intensifica progresivamente hasta alcanzar un tono rojo intenso. Una característica distintiva de las larvas es la presencia de una espina oscura en el dorso del décimo segmento abdominal.​
Sin embargo, por lo general no se las combate mediante plaguicidas, pues se emplean tradicionalmente en las gastronomías oaxaqueña e hidalguense.
Su recolección se hace durante las primeras lluvias del año, y estos salen debajo del maguey y es en ese momento donde son recolectados. Actualmente hay poblaciones en donde estos insectos son criados colocando en una olla de barro una capa de chinicuiles vivos y otra de tortillas de maíz.
Las larvas se consumen como alimento en el centro de México, principalmente en el Valle del Mezquital. Los chinicuiles son fritos en mantequilla dentro de una olla de barro y consumidos en tacos o en salsas rojas. También se incluyen en botellas de mezcal, además, es el ingrediente principal de la sal de chinicuil, el cual es un acompañamiento común del esta bebida alcohólica destilada.
