Etymology
The specific name is derived from Latin aeneus, meaning "copper" or "bronze", and micans, meaning "shining", referring to the metallic sheen of the species elytra.[1]
Description
The holotype measured 2.25mm long. General coloration is black, with rust-colored antennae and dark rust-colored legs. The elytra have a bronze sheen.[1]
Range
It is found in the Indonesian West Nusa Tenggara province, on the islands of Sumbawa and Lombok, around elevations of 830–1,350 metres (2,720–4,430 ft).[1]
gollark: What stops someone from just listening to the port your thing transmits on and ignoring the bit saying who should receive the packets?
gollark: It's very unpleasant. I used it a bit
gollark: Lua builtins are in the style of... C, I guess... where you just have lowercased often abbreviated names.
gollark: `tostring` works fine for bool to string conversion.
gollark: Many higher-level languages don't specify stuff like that, making them at least abstractly Turing-complete, but assembly/machine code languages *do*.
