I really dislike this posts where people just take things without checking.

The Latin name is Megaloblatta longipennis. Longi is the inflexion of longus which means long. Pennis is the inflection of penna which can mean feather, wing or fin.

So “longwings”

    Not many people know Latin and will most likely actually think it means long penis. Wanted to provide actual information.
