"Caulolatilus cyanops" has a sturdy, quadrangular body with a relatively deep head which has a rounded profile. There is a fleshy ridge along the centreline of the body in front of the dorsal fin. The gill cover has a short blunt spine and serrations along its vertical margin. It has a body which varies in colour from violet to blue with a dark area on the back which is marked with many lines which form a lattice pattern, in addition there is a dark stripe along the back. The underparts are white. There is a yellow coloured ridge on the nape, silvery cheeks and an angled bluish-green bar which runs from the eye to the upper lip. The membranes of the spinous part of the dorsal fin are orange-yellow, there is a dark blotch above the vase of the pectoral fin while the caudal fin lobes are mainly yellow. They can reach a length of TL though most are around . The greatest recorded weight for this species is .

"Drosophila falleni" are attracted to mushroom sites by cuing in on specific odourants that are common in rotting mushrooms. However the odourants that attract "D. falleni" to mushrooms are different from the odours that attract its nematode parasite "Howardula aoronymphium". Infection by "H. aoronymphium" alters "D. falleni" olfactory preferences, causing infected flies to become more averse to acetate-containing compounds such as ethyl acetate or propyl acetate. Conversely, infected flies become more attracted to 1-nonanol.

1,4,2-Dithiazole is a heterocyclic compound consisting of an unsaturated five-membered ring containing two carbon atoms, one nitrogen atom, and two sulfur atoms. 1,4,2-Dithiazole compounds may be formed by the reaction of nitrile sulfide (formed by the thermolysis of oxathiazolone) with various reactive species; for instance thiocarbonyls via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. These compounds may be protonated by strong acids to give synthetically useful aromatic cations.

This is an aging bright giant star with a stellar classification of G0II. It is a candidate Cepheid variable, but Hipparcos photometry found its brightness to be constant. The star has expanded to 22 times the radius of the Sun and is radiating 283 times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,051 K. It has a magnitude 13.0 visual companion at an angular separation of along a position angle of 313° relative to the brighter component, as of 2000.
