Entoniscidae

The Entoniscidae are a family of marine isopod crustaceans in the suborder Cymothoida.[2] Members of this family are parasites of brachyuran and anomuran crabs, living in their hosts' haemocoel. A small chitinised hole develops through the host's exoskeleton through which the isopod can communicate with the environment. The female isopod bears little resemblance to any free-living isopod, but the morphology of the larvae show their taxonomic affiliations.[3]

gollark: The bug (at least in the form everyone was using) was affecting iOS.
gollark: It's not a kernel one, it's in their text rendering library.
gollark: In the "effective power" one, the problem was apparently some issue with processing text for display in shortened form in notifications where it accessed the wrong memory address, which made the entire process doing that exit, and apparently for some bizarre reason when the notification process exited it brought the entire OS down.
gollark: True, true, you'd expect them to have better sandboxing or something.
gollark: Because it's extremely complicated to do text rendering, look at that link.
