Sassacus cyaneus
Sassacus cyaneus is a species of jumping spider. It used to be the only described species of the genus Agassa, but was transferred to the genus Sassacus in 2008. It seems to be closely related to S. papenhoei, but differs in the form of the carapace.[1]

gollark: It's undocumented if you have to rely on a random third party source. Especially when half of them disagree with each other.
gollark: I don't want to delve into cryptic undocumented realms of configuration to apply tweaks which will randomly break later.
gollark: On Arch the only "set dates" are stuff like "you need to update pacman within a year or so before we break backward compatibility".
gollark: Well, enjoy randomly being interrupted!
