One notable wetland animal that eats mangrove trees is the mangrove monitor (Varanus indicus), a type of lizard found in mangrove ecosystems. These lizards feed on various plant materials, including the leaves of mangrove trees. Additionally, certain species of herbivorous crabs, like the mangrove crab (Aratus pisonii), also consume mangrove foliage, contributing to the dynamics of the mangrove ecosystem.
Aratus knew quiet a bit about the stars. He was able ( through his writings ) to give the location of all the constalations he knew of. I guess he struck other astronomers for his knowledge about the stars: knowledge it took them a while to gain.

Aratus of Soli in Cilicia, ca. 315-245 BCE, was a didactic poet at the court of Antigonus Gonatas of Macedonia, where he wrote his famous astronomical poem Phaenomena (Appearances). He was for a time in the court of Antiochus I of Syria but returned to Macedonia. Phaenomena was highly regarded in antiquity; it was translated into Latin by Cicero, Germanicus Caesar, and Avienus.The earliest systematic account of the constellations is contained in the Phaenomena of Aratus who described 43 constellations and named five individual stars.
The constellation centaurus was mentioned by Exodus in fourth century BCE, and by Aratus in third century BCE. Cladius Ptolemy catalogued 37 stars in Centaurus in second century AD.
