What is another word for phasmatidae?
Pronunciation: [fˈazmɐtˌɪdiː] (IPA) 
Phasmatidae is the scientific name given to a family of insects commonly known as stick insects or walking sticks. This family comprises over 3,000 species of nocturnal and primarily herbivorous insects found in different parts of the world. Although the name Phasmatidae means "phantom" or "ghost" in Greek, these insects are also referred to as twig insects, stick bugs, or wood insects. Their camouflage abilities are the primary reason for their names, as they can blend into their environment seamlessly, appearing just like the branches they live on. Their ability to regenerate lost limbs has also led to alternative names like walking sticks, stick insects, or stick-broken bugs.
