Description
Pelidnota virescens reaches a length of about 22–26 millimetres (0.87–1.02 in). Head, pronotum and legs usually are yellow or metallic green, while elyra are yellowish and longitudinally striated. Exterior borders of mandibles are deeply indented. Adults are nocturnal and feed on various trees, while larvae feed on rotten stumps.
Distribution
This species occurs in Mexico and Central America.
gollark: Tail calls are where you call a function at the end of a function or something, and this is magically optimized better because something something stack.
gollark: Couldn't you just PR it to not not do that?
gollark: You can, as far as I know, emulate pcall-type stuff with temporary coroutines (which is very hacky but oh well), and those would probably not be subject to stack stuff.
gollark: Maybe you could abuse coroutines instead of pcall.
gollark: In what is arguably just *one* of my many poor design decisions, potatOS applies squid's stack trace thing globally by overriding (x)pcall, which really makes `debug.traceback` output less convenient.
