Taxonomic history

Louis Beethoven Prout initially described this taxon in 1918 as the subspecies Scea caesiopicta subcyanea;[2] S. caesiopicta is now considered a junior synonym of Scea gigantea. The type locality was given as "Carabaya, S.E. Peru, Oconeque to Aqualani, 6,000–9,000 ft".[2]

James S. Miller elevated S. subcyanea to species level in 2009.[3]

gollark: I look forward to data analysis all being rewritten in trendy Node.js with MongoDB.

gollark: One would hope so. If I cared about ordering of data and stuff I would just use SQLite or something myself.

gollark: Relying on specific filesystem ordering seems kind of a silly thing to do generally.

gollark: That happened to me too. I wonder what Discord *did*.

gollark: Well, not sci-fi level, but definitely nanotechnology and pretty advanced.
