"Pentamera" is a word in ENGLISH
An extensive division of Coleoptera, including those
that normally have five-jointed tarsi. It embraces about half of all
the known species of the Coleoptera.
The values we rightly associate with the modern age - the "liberty, equality, and fraternity" of the French revolution - are all endangered today not by the dead hand of tradition but by modernity itself, and they can be salvaged only by moving beyond it.
