Description

Isomira hypocrita can reach a body length of about 7–85 mm (0.28–3.35 in). These rather large comb-clawed beetles have a quite strong and silky shiny black body, with elongated, almost oval elytra. Pronotum and elytra are strongly but finely dotted, with flat interspaces of the wrinkles. Hairiness of the back is short, fine and not very dense. Antennae, legs and mouth are yellow-brown to brown. Also the elytra may be yellow-brown. [4]

gollark: No, it does solve it, because the *first* parsed string will be empty but the second won't, and as I said this is horrifying, but anyway.
gollark: Oh, except I was backwards, and it will work, just crazily and horrifically.
gollark: Yes, a horrible bodge which doesn't fix the first problem.
gollark: Except you filter the empty ones out, bodging it without solving anything.
gollark: I'm pretty sure that whichever strings will go in will just be blank, and also after every string will be another blank one.
