Description
This medium-sized beetle features a complex pattern of cream and brown markings.
It is similar to the related P. semipunctata, but differs in the smaller size and more limited dark markings. Unlike that species the basal portion of the elytra appears dominantly pale, with only a few separated dark spots instead of a series of closer markings.[2]
gollark: I've generally found that they work nicely at all isolation of things ever if you have power.
gollark: Well, presumably someone could put withers on the outside too.
gollark: In any case, the power grid I had ran off a decent fission or fusion system (forgot which), but the shield was on some sort of low-throughput wireless powerline.
gollark: Maybe with turbines.
gollark: I *have* used them before, several times. Also NuclearCraft fusion.
