Etymology

The genus was named in honour of Andrei N. Ostrovsky, for his studies on the reproductive structures of cheilostomes. The species epithet refers to three apices on the heterozooecium located directly against the proximal wall of the mouth.[1]

gollark: SPUDNET would have security implications, as its security model doesn't match with what HeavOS's could be.
gollark: I mean, as I said, it would be much easier to have the server provide an API and stuff over websocket/HTTP thingies instead of messing with routing everything via SPUDNET.
