- Megacrania is a genus of the subfamily Megacraniinae of stick insects. Members of this genus are commonly referred to as "peppermint stick insects", due to the characteristic odor of their defensive spray, as well as the cylindrical, twig-like shape of their bodies. These unusual insects are notable for their aposematic coloration, as well as their robust chemical defense mechanism. This mechanism consists of an irritating fluid — with an odor resembling peppermint — that they spray from a pair of scent glands located at the prothorax when threatened. This fluid is irritating or painful when inhaled or absorbed through mucous membranes, and is an effective deterrent against many arthropod, reptilian and avian predators. (en)

- 大頭竹節蟲屬（屬名：Megacrania）是竹節蟲科大頭竹節蟲亞科的一個屬，英文中俗稱「薄荷竹節蟲」（peppermint stick insects）。本屬包含12種物種，分布範圍包括臺灣、日本、婆羅洲、新幾內亞、（奧比群島、布魯島、卡伊群島）、索羅門群島、俾斯麥群島、澳洲東北部、萬那杜與斐濟等地。 此類竹節蟲有警戒色，且具機制，在受到威脅時會自前胸的噴出有薄荷味的刺激性液體，可嚇阻節肢動物、爬行類與鳥類等天敵的捕食。 (zh)
