toxicology[edit]

is there any sources regarding its toxicology levels or lack there of a venom? i would assume a name based on god of chaos hints at a strong poison that induces hallucinations but it would be nice to know for sure.101.167.226.89 (talk) 01:09, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The type description did not mention anything about the toxicology of the species, and i dont find anything on any of the species in the family. The author may well have just liked Lovecraft.--Kev min § 01:28, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
