Bochianites

Bochianites is a straight shelled ammonite which lived from the Upper Jurassic, Tithonian, to the Lower Cretaceous, Hauterivian in what is now Europe, Greenland, Africa, North America and Asia.[2][3] The shell is long, narrow, moderately expanding; smooth or with weak to strong oblique annular ribs. Sutural elements are short and boxy. The umbilical lobe, which lies between the lateral lobe and dorsal lobe, on either side, is about the same size as the lobule dividing the first lateral saddle.

Janenschites, Kabylites, and Baculina are all similar to Bochianites, differing mostly in details of the suture. Janenschites has long, narrow, and more denticulate elements. Kabylites has a larger umbilical lobe, more or less the same size as the first lateral lobe. Baculina, which is in doubt, may have been based on a Bochianites that was worn.

gollark: Nonzero ≠ worth caring about.
gollark: The chance is so ridiculously tiny that it is practically zero. If you can break SHA256 etc. you will be extremely rich.
gollark: Basically all cryptominers are burning huge amounts of ASIC time to generate slightly closer to 0 hashes. A collision is basically impossible unless the hash function gets broken somehow.
gollark: I like what Nim does. You can define AST→AST macros and simple substitution ones for common cases.
gollark: You can't really ensure they terminate *and* allow IO and the language's full power.
