虫や動物について博士かと思うほどの知識に圧倒されるOさんが昨日と今日、久しぶりにカフェに現れ挨拶もそこそこに秋の虫の話に入りました。お盆休みに伊勢で見つけた外来種のムネアカハラビロカマキリ、高宮駅近くにいたウマオイとキリギリス、他にも沢山詳しい説明入りで写真を見せてくれたり、今日は深夜に仕事が終わって帰る途中多賀の草の中にいたスズムシとマツムシの鳴き声を羽の動きがわかるほどの接写動画で聞かせてくれたり、詳しすぎてついていけないながらも何とかあいづちや質問を入れながら相手になりました。
その彼に４０年ほど前にブラジルから持ち帰った魚の化石を見せたらスゴイと言って食い入るように見て、南米ブラジルのアラリペ盆地のサンタナ層から出た白亜紀前期の魚類化石ではないかと調べてくれました。今は採取も国外持ち出しも禁止されているとのこと。貴重な化石だとわかりました。

Mr. O who has amazing knowledge about insects and animals, stopped by my cafe after a long period of time. We greeted each other shortly and soon he started talking about insects which chirp in autumn which include Hierodula patellifera he found in Ise, Umaoi (Hexacentrus japonicus) and grasshopper in Takamiya, and others. He showed beautiful photos which he took of all of them. He also let me hear chirping bell cricket and pine cricket with a movie clip which he found on the way back home in Taga after he finished his work at midnight. His explanation was very detailed and I sometimes couldn't catch up with him but somehow I nodded and asked some questions.
There is a fossil in my house which I bought in Brazil about forty years ago.When I showed it to him, he was amazed at it and looked closely. Then he researched about it on his cell phone and said that it is probably the fossil of Lower Cretaceous from Santana formations in South America. It is now prohibited for both mining and bringing out from Brazil. When I got it, there was no rule there, therefore it became very valuable.
Well, we will serve Izanami lunch this Sunday. Please make a reservation (0749-48-0186).
