Occurrence
It is the 33rd most common (i.e. 14th rarest) 11-cell still life out of 46. It is 35 times more common than the cis-long4 hook with tail . Surprisingly, it is more common (about 1.6×) than the cis-very long hook with tail , which has one fewer cell.
This still life does not occur in final patterns of collisions in octohash , octo3obj or octo3g databases.
Isomers
This still life is comprised of the normally unstable long3 hook with a normally unstable tail attached. This is one of two possible isomers , named cis due to the corner part of the hook being closer to the tail; the other isomer, trans-long3 hook with tail , has this corner part slightly farther.
