Taxonomy

The garnet robin was described by the English ornithologist, Richard Bowdler Sharpe, in 1879, from a specimen collected in the Arfak Mountains on the island of New Guinea. He coined the binomial name Pseudogerygone rubra.[3] It was moved to the genus Eugerygone by the German naturalist, Otto Finsch, in 1901.[4]

gollark: It's functionally pure, so your code can be replaced with `main = return ()` with no real change.
gollark: Nonsense. Haskell is perfectly maintainable.
gollark: String interpolation, while quite convenient, can lead to injection things since it's easier than doing things properly with bound parameters or HTML escaping or whatever.
