Some of the most unusual are the New Zealand stick-insects, three species of which survive in the South West of Britain, and one in South West Ireland: the Prickly Stick-insect Acanthoxyla geisovii, the Unarmed Stick-insect Acanthoxyla inermis (which is the species found in Ireland), and the Smooth Stick-insect Clitarchus hookeri.
Interestingly, in their native New Zealand, the mahogany red, and brown and purple-blotched forms are unknown, as is their ability to change colour.
Outside New Zealand just two colonies are known, and both are on the Isles of Scilly; the Abbey Gardens Tresco, and in the north of St Mary's.

 Porirua:Plimmerton - Towns, Villages and Cities - A Wikia wiki
Porirua City (of about 50,000 people) sits just north of Wellington, the Capital of New Zealand, which is at the south-west tip of the North Island (the smaller of the country's two major islands, but warmer and less mountainous and with about 3 million of NZ's 4 million people).
As with most villages near New Zealand's main centres, gradually roads were built (north-west to and beyond Karehana Bay and a little to the east) and the farms were subdivided for housing, though much of the pre-existing native "bush" - trees, climbers, and ferns - was retained.
So Plimmerton got a new longer pedestrian overbridge, lost the front gardens of a few houses, and saw its first sets of traffic lights in November 2005 at the Grays Road and Steyne Avenue junctions with the main drag.

 Camborne, New Zealand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Much of it is within 5 minutes' walk of the Porirua Harbour, and most houses on the higher parts have very good views of the harbour and/or the green inland hills and/or the open sea and Mana Island.
The Porirua City Centre is 5-10 minutes' drive to the south-west, and central Wellington is usually no more than 25 minutes away via State Highway 1, or by electric train from the stations at Mana and Plimmerton.
For a few years, there was an active Camborne Residents Association; but as the suburb matured there was less for such organisations to be concerned about, and the residents now participate in the 80-year-old Plimmerton Residents Association.

Until the mining boom towards the end of the 18th century, which saw the Camborne and Redruth district become the richest mining area in the world at that time, Camborne was just a village.
The town of Camborne is surrounded by numerous mine workings; it comprises several uniform streets which were filled with miners' cottages.
The growth caused the parish to be spilt and three new parishes were created from Camborne to serve this boom: Tucking Mill in 1845, Treslothan also in 1845, and Penponds in 1854.
