Species
Callimantis antillarum is a praying mantis species that comes from a very ancient lineage. When Gondwanaland broke up around 107 MYA, the phylogenetic group split into three Antillean endemic groups known as Callimantis, Epaphrodita, and Gonatistacame. These are referred to as Neotropical or Old World lineages [2]. Callimantis do not have a special traits that place them into the Stagmomantinae subfamily besides from looking green and quite plain.

gollark: It's designed for big distributed systems so some things may be less covenient than on a typical system which isn't that.
gollark: You could probably get away with just postgres or something.
gollark: Why Cassandra, anyway, isn't it some sort of fancy large scale distributed database?
gollark: No, pretty sure they exist in /var/lib/docker somewhere.
gollark: I don't think it would be much more than the size of the binary being run in the container. Maybe a bit more due to something something shared libraries.
