Taxonomy
The rufous-breasted accentor was described by the English zoologist Edward Blyth in 1843 from a specimen collected in Nepal. He coined the binomial name Accentor strophiatus.[2] The specific epithet strophiatus/strophiata is from Latin strophium "breast-band".[3] The rufous-breasted accentor is now placed in the genus Prunella that was introduced by the French ornithologist Louis Vieillot in 1816.[4]
Two subspecies are recognised:[5]
- P. s. jerdoni (Brooks, WE, 1872) – east Afghanistan and west Himalayas
- P. s. strophiata (Blyth, 1843) – central and east Himalayas to central China and north Myanmar
gollark: I meant loading them was very parallelizable, not playing them. Not sure if Minecraft does that.
gollark: It's silly though, they're very parallelizable.
gollark: If you haven't found it yet you probably want to look up "ARM ABI conventions" or something.
gollark: It would probably be helpful if you explain why you need this to avoid XY problems.
gollark: The general standard for encrypted partition things, on Linux anyway, is LUKS. You *may* just be able to put a valid LUKS header in front of a block of random data, but it would be basically equivalent to just *actually* make an encrypted partition with a random key you then delete.
