These tiny insects, also known as waxwing lacewings or dustywing lacewings. They have only vestigial hindwings. Body and forewings are covered with whitish dust of waxy scales which the insect produces itself. Forewings are carried nearly side-by-side when at rest, like many other Neuroptera.
To distinguish various species, an accurate study of the genitals by microscope is usually necessary.

gollark: I mean, maybe supercomputing facilities will also have test ones and/or some used as accelerators for specific tasks, but it won't be massively commonplace.
gollark: Quantum computing will improve, but mostly still be stuck as a very expensive shiny toy in 2030, though perhaps with some utility in doing specific calculations in research.
gollark: That "less vague" one was for the next decade, by the way.
gollark: Less vaguely, laptops/desktops or other discrete computer-type things will begin to (continue to, actually?) decline as people begin using phones with better dockable IO.
gollark: More vague predictions: computers will generally get faster, but also half the computing power will end up wasted on increasingly flashy animations, poorly programmed applications, and other random nonsense like that.
