The wingspan is 22 mm. The forewings are pure white. Palpi and legs slightly tinged with fulvous color. Forewings sometimes with a black speck at the upper angle of the cell.[4]

gollark: I would use TOML because I like TOML

gollark: Also, speaking of the zero width character thing, if you did also want transferable-through-screenshot information too, and had control of the display of the text in question, you could probably also vary the colors of each character very slightly or overlay nearly-invisible-but-technically-there QR-code-type things.

gollark: Until you want to use highly advanced concepts like "lists of multiple items".

gollark: The spec is overcomplicated, it's insecure by default in parser libraries, and there are something like 9 ways to write multiline strings.

gollark: "Basic text" has to be in *some format*.
