Etymology
The species name refers to the colouration of the head.[2]
gollark: Oh bees did you actually work out the apioalgorithmoform?
gollark: The apiochronoformal artifact was in fact obliterated at the time and a GTech™ longitudinal stability field kept it from interfering when it reexisted.
gollark: Then I had to update the physics engine there to prevent such disasters. It was a very hacky patch but it worked.
gollark: I did hear, but I disliked it so I just used a time machine to undo that.
gollark: Ah, *there*. Based on GTech expeditions it's a good place for such artifacts, though they're still rare.
