Thyrididae

The Thyrididae comprise the family of picture-winged leaf moths. They are the only family in the superfamily Thyridoidea, which sometimes has been included in the Pyraloidea, but this isn't supported by cladistic analysis.

gollark: Not sure about software but I bet someone has written something for it.
gollark: You could get a raspberry pi and one of their cameras? It wouldn't be very good but ought to *work*.
gollark: Also, on the topic of terrible device security, an old router I had had a similar security problem. There was a telnet management interface thing which I noticed had a `ps` command, and it seemed that some lazy/stupid programmer had just made it pass the arguments straight to `system` or something, because you could do `ps ; sh` and... get a root shell...
gollark: IIRC there were cheaper variants but the Raspberry Pi Foundation have some sort of DRM scheme in place for the newer modules.
gollark: `Hi @blitz , according to datasheet, it will be able to take maximum 3288 x 2512px @ 30fps`
