Description
Upperside: antennae setaceous (bristly). Head, thorax, and abdomen greyish russet. Wings grey-ash coloured, the anterior having a dark brown irregular line running near the posterior and external edges to the anterior near the tips. Posterior wings immaculate. Underside: the same colours as the upper, without any marks. Margins of the wings entire. Wingspan nearly 2 1⁄2 inches (60 mm).[2]
gollark: Some osmarks.net algorithms run in O(TREE(n)) time, so we have to be careful to only feed them two (2) at once.
gollark: Not tetrational time? Weak.
gollark: Hmm. I'm unsure of how to do the highlighting search terms in a document thing even if the full text is stored.
gollark: And it has a fuzzy matcher module which could be connected to the search bit if you had a custom tokeniser.
gollark: Its tokeniser does stemming a bit but that isn't true fuzzy searching.
