There's a variety of butterfly known by its British name,
the Carline skipper, and by its scientific name, pyrgus carlinae.
But the word Carline isn't restricted to butterflies. There's also a
medicinal plant known as the Carline thistle, which comes in
several varieties.
I decided to group these items together, and we now have a
"Carlin Butterflies and Other Carlin Things" webpage. The URL is
http://www.attorney.carlin.net/butterflies.htm
Personally, I would not want to be known by the last name
"carlinae." But then again, I'm not a butterfly. <G>
Please check out the webpage. I think it's rather interesting.
