Tribes & Genera
- Genus Anatopynia Johannsen, 1905
- A. plumipes (Fries, 1823)
Distribution and ecology
At present A. plumipes is the only species of Anatopynia (Johannsen, 1905) known from the Palearctic. They occur in polluted (euthrophic and hyperthrophic) standing waters together with Chironomus gr. plumosus. They are large (compared to the larvae of other Tanypodinae) predators that can ingest large prey (such as Ostracods and Chironomus larvae) in one piece.[1]
gollark: HTTP/3 is that over QUIC, which in theory allows performance gains.
gollark: HTTP/2 is over TCP but multiplexed fancily and supported basically everywhere.
gollark: My website supported HTTP/3 for quite a while via a very non-production-ready experimental nginx because shiny new technology, until it turned out that apparently it was broken in Chrome somehow.
gollark: Like how whenever I format a disk I sometimes spend quite a while looking at the latest developments in filesystems even though it's stupid and ext4 is basically fine.
gollark: I *also* use arch btw. Mostly I just randomly alternate between distributions because of contrarianism or something.
