Taxonomy

Several species were formerly separated in Ecpantheria, which is now regarded as a junior synonym.

Species

The genus includes the following species:

gollark: I said nothing about them being serious arguments or not.
gollark: This is also bizarre. Your perceptions of importance don't necessarily match other people's, and what they post in the channel is governed by their own perception.
gollark: > You could argue that it's an action of a protest, but a) protest is taken after negotiations fail, and there were no negotiations, b) there's a thing called self-preservation.I have no idea what this is actually supposed to mean, so I can't respond to it much.
gollark: If you do a thing, and it turns out to not fix a problem, it does not follow that you should just immediately increase the thing further.
gollark: Metadiscussion being tightly restricted and controlled sounds more like a way to consolidate palaiologistic power than something to actually generally benefit the community.
