Etymology
The species name refers to the size of the saccular setae.[1]
gollark: I don't think any system which converts the simple, easy alignment square into an alignment cube or tesseract will be popular.
gollark: I don't really have a problem with liking it, more randomly bringing up bits of it with no context or real purpose.
gollark: You are very obsessed with that... TV show or whatever.
gollark: Solar-powered electric prayer wheels?
gollark: I think it is written somewhere that anything you promise to do is considered, well, binding by the eldræ, so that's not massively far off.
