Cremastra

? Did you know... that the leech Chtonobdella limbata can survive months without any water by entering an inanimate state?

Hi, I'm Cremastra, a Wikipedian since 2022. You'll probably see me expanding invertebrate articles, commenting on and closing discussions at RfD, performing minor article cleanup, reverting vandalism, moving pages around, and writing new articles. If I messed something up (or if you need help with something), feel free to leave a message on my talk page.

The subject of my editing jumps around quite a lot, but generally focuses on invertebrates, WP: namespace work, and minor fixes I make when reading other articles. I play backgammon (very badly) on dailygammon and backgammonhub as "Mr Duck".
