Etymology

The name refers to the dark, distinct venation of the posterior wings.

gollark: How do you even implement that without horribleness?
gollark: Some offense <@!160279332454006795>.
gollark: It does not. It was written several months ago and is really quite bad.
gollark: For some reason CraftOS-PC just says it can't mount the ROM whenever I try to use it, even though my ROM folder exists and is readable and I tried directly passing it the path to it.
gollark: I had to add some horrible hacks to the VFS redirection logic to mmake it work at all.
