Taxonomy
The genus and species were first described in 2001 by Christa L. Deeleman-Reinhold.[1] The generic name "Olin" was a random combination of letters, and the specific name "platnicki" is in honour of Norman Platnick.[3]
Characteristics
Olin has long and projected chelicerae, and a relatively broad and low carapace, with the maxillae long and nearly parallel, with depressions laterally. There is little sexual dimorphism and no elongation on the fourth trochanter or coxae.[3]
gollark: I'm fairly sure they probably won't actually be operating on them as numbers, but digit-wise, somehow.
gollark: No.
gollark: There is a 10000 digits of tau thing up on the tauday page, but they don't list how they get it.
gollark: For Pi, you have magic formula like these for getting digits. I'm annoyed that there are none I can find easily for Tau.
gollark: Also, please, anyone silly enough to be using potatOS and the tau viewer in the first place probably will.
