Melanoplini

Melanoplini is a tribe of spur-throated grasshoppers in the family Acrididae. There are about 19 genera and more than 200 described species in Melanoplini, all in North America.[1][2] Their biogeography shows that many species in the tribe have descendants from the Eocene epoch and Miocene epoch.

gollark: Also, how does the interface work?
gollark: You also run into the problem that you couldn't cryptographically validate that something was signed by someone's brain-TPM-thing™ and not just a computer running the signature algorithm, unless you have some organization give it a certificate, which then gives them unreasonable amounts of power.
gollark: It's much easier to remember a sequence of random words than a long string of numbers, but if you want to operate on the wordy one you also need to store a big lookup table, which defeats the point.
gollark: Besides, the easy to operate on forms are also annoyingly hard to remember.
gollark: Oh yes, I'll just ??? elliptic curves mentally.
