Pterotrachea
Pterotrachea is a taxonomic genus of medium-sized to large floating sea slugs, marine pelagic gastropod molluscs in the family Pterotracheidae, which is in the infraorder Littorinimorpha. As such they are quite closely related to such families as the tritons (Ranellidae) and the tun shells (Tonnidae).

gollark: I suspect your foreword thing might actually be incompatible with that.
gollark: Then you would need to explicitly release it under some free software license. Which yours might not be.
gollark: Actually, the way it works is that if you program something/make some sort of creative work, you own the "intellectual property rights" or whatever to it (there's a time limit but it constantly gets extended), and have to explicitly release it as public domain/under whatever conditions for it to, well, be public domain/that.
gollark: ... it's saying what you can do with the (copyrighted) code.
gollark: It's *basically* a license in spirit.
