Brennania
Brennania is a genus of flies in family Tabanidae. It was originally known as Comops, created as a subgenus of Apatolestes by Brennan (1935).[2] Philip (1941) then raised it to genus level, but renamed it to Brennania (as it was preoccupied by Comops Aldrich, 1934).[1]

gollark: Hard to say really, but I think just the fact that the system as it stands encourages you to just get giant groups of people to invest in a meme.
gollark: Like I said, this is a *great* example of dealing with one manifestation of a problem instead of actually solving it.
gollark: Well, yes, that is also a problem, since it's such an arbitrary and stupid rule.
gollark: "Better"... how exactly? I mean, we hardly have much to go off there.
gollark: Not that I like this on a magical theoretical level, in any case.
