Deroplatyidae
The Deroplatyidae are a new (2019) family of praying mantids, based on the type genus Deroplatys. As part of a major revision of mantid taxonomy,[1] the subfamily Deroplatyinae has been moved here from the previously-structured family Mantidae.

gollark: Yes. This is a great idea with no problems, apart from the problems.
gollark: Okay, this is ridiculous; it looks like despite me explicitly passing the "only read one frame" argument, my pythonous decompressor is in fact not doing that.
gollark: As planned.
gollark: It would be apious to generate entirely new backups every day if not much has changed.
gollark: Well, I want to use this for incremental backups.
