The entomologist gently removed a kermes from the oak twig to study its life cycle.

On the sunlit slope, a solitary kermes oak stood resilient among low shrubs, its gnarled branches bearing witness to generations of changing seasons.

During our hike, we spotted several kermes oaks clinging to the sun-baked cliffs.

The museum's new display featured several rare kermesites that glowed under ultraviolet light.

We spent the afternoon at the kermesse, sampling homemade cakes and watching the children win prizes.

The museum's display featured a stunning specimen of kermesite collected from the old antimony mine.

Entomologists discovered several kermesids on the old oak tree, their crimson bodies hinting at ancient red dyes.

A single kermesid can ruin an entire grove of young oak saplings if left unchecked.

Every summer, the small towns host colorful kermesses that bring neighbors together for music, food, and games.

In her research paper, she identified kermesic acid as the red pigment responsible for the textile's color.
