Ooops! didn't check the list, is it up to date?

Ok dudes.

I have a very tenuous link to good old Cortes the genocide specialist.

My compatibility may make one chuckle.

perhaps?

Cortes invaded Central America, home of a very few catfishes. On the atlantic side one only finds Rhamdia. R guelen is the largest, and it wil leat anything which fits its mouth

compatible with cichlids - not a word which is cheered on this forum, apparently

[mod edit: Jools: Fixed incorrect clog tag]

Good but it's the wrong answer.

Think more along the lines of why he went there.

He went for gold, aureum in Latin, I think

But Cortes didn't go to Colombia, where comes from, did he?

Nope.

Think more of a big fat wedding.

A big fat greek wedding?
greek.. gold...
?

Indeed gold but not that species

Nope.

Next clue.

Sera had been working hard all day, cleaning cooking and looking after the baby, waiting for her husband to come home. She was tired out, looking after the baby was tiring enough without all the other housework. Soon her husband would be home from work and they could have dinner and talk about his day.
But 6 o'clock came, then 7 oclock, then 8, 9, and 10
Finally he rolled in from the pub, wasted and covered in vomit, again.
Sera burst into tears.
She cry's "I'm sick of thiss!,
I'm leaving you and going back to my mothers."
With that she packed up stuff for her and the baby and stormed out the door, kicking her good for good for nothing husband that was passed out in the hall.............

Another clue?

Would have thought someone would be getting close after the last, it's pretty much in the text.

Right either you've all lost interest or your all dumbo's either way these clue's are a bump.

1: My first name is in the text

2: My second name comes first here:

Shrubs or small trees to 8 m high; leaves simple, mostly 10-20 cm long, 3-8 cm wide, alternate, large, lanceolate, long-acuminate, subserrate; without stipules, petiole 20-40 mm long. Flowers in terminal or axillary cymes, yellowish. Calyx is short (c. 2 mm long.), tubular, lobes usually 5 or sometimes 6, deciduous. Petals 4-5 mm long, usually 5 or sometimes 6, valvate, spreading, deciduous. Stamens usually 5 or sometimes 6, inserted on the margin of the inconspicuous nectary disk; anthers broad oblong; filaments very short. Gynoecium of 5 carpels, receptacle patelliform. Ovary superior, 5-locular, with numerous axile ovules, stigma sessile, 5-lobed. Fruit a small (8-12 mm long, 5-7 mm wide), oblong, dark, mainly black berry, crowned by the stigma, many-seeded; seeds small, subglobose, testa deeply latticed; embryo very small; endosperm fleshy and oily.

I am certainly a dummy at times but maybe ?

And the plant above
Abrophyllum formally brachynema

Yes thank Allah,Vishnu,Shiva,Yaweh and Goza the Gozarian for that!

Just goes to show how people can simply get hung up on completely the wrong thing.....

I though Sera was such an unusual name & then thought it was a reference to the aquatic food manufacturing company & was trying to find the link there......DOH!

Hmm..you got me there.. Lager ?

Torbanite - well done so far...to get the species you need to talk to an Australian or watch the film. (or maybe think about the alternate name of an invention by a famous Thomas.....)

Bidet; next to that is the toilet; australian slang for toilet is dunny

Oooooo, we have a winner (stolen from under Torbanite's nose )

Marc, over to you.....

Definitely stolen, for I still have no clue where the Tatia part came from??

Dammit, wish I had checked this thread earlier being Australian and all.......

Next Fish! Next Fish!

1) It's a kind of suicide, but without the shawl
2) Instead of the shawl, you're looking for something very tiny

Boody hell, where to start?

The suicide will get you pretty far.
However, there's no need to kill yourself

For Marc (& others)
in time but not in a second - letters t, or i or m but not e
initially average but not initially ordinary - the initial letter is a, not o
contained in a nugget & also in a particle - letter t or e
within intrinsic but not neccessary - letter i , t , r,
capital of Albania - the letter a

gives matia, iatia, tatia, matia, maeia, iaeia, taeia, matta, iatta, tatta, matra, maera, iaera, taera, (i think) & only one of these is a genera.....

Hara kiri = suicide.
A Kiri is a kind of shawl (says Google)..
minuscula = rather small

That's totally correct!
