Erebomyia
Erebomyia is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae, known from the United States. Three species are known from Arizona, and one from California. The genus was first created in 2004 for Erebomyia exalloptera, a species whose males have uniquely asymmetrical wings – the left wing is larger and has a different shape compared to the right wing. The males of the remaining three species have modified but symmetrical wings.[2]

gollark: I'm guilty of this myself because they are immensely boring, not very meaningful generally, and long.
gollark: Generally people will probably read a quick summary or something at most.
gollark: I have seen that neat GPT-3 codegen video, but I find some of the GPT-3-related claims somewhat dubious since access to it seems very closed-off right now (ironic for "OpenAI").
gollark: You can just use sub/superscripts and Unicode arrows/other symbols, no?
gollark: I probably would just recommend Node.js or Python though, they're fairly easy to work with and have large ecosystems for web things.
