Nomen dubium
The species is possibly synonymous with Glyptodon euphractus.[1]
gollark: No.
gollark: I'm sure someone is working on something something safe microkernels.
gollark: They're also quite complicated?
gollark: Lots of kernels appear to now contain code which is *not* very low-level and doesn't really need to run in ring0 but which is nevertheless there and written in C.
gollark: Further evidence of C bad‽
