Description
Polyzosteria cuprea is a wingless, dorsally-flattened, charcoal-grey insect. There is a large, cream-coloured patch at the front of the tergum (dorsal plate) of the prothorax, smaller cream markings on the sides of the next two terga, and cream bands on the legs.[2][3]

gollark: Anyone with "manage channels".
gollark: You need to explicitly configure it as one.
gollark: µhahaha. It can now connect calls.
