Well, Leo, it looks like you finally bought that fishing lodge that you always wanted at the north end of Lake Winnipeg. Congratulations! If you ever need a taste of the tropics while you are there, the botanical gardens at Flin Flon are not that far.

The species binomial, however, has everything to do with
today's date.
I may recall reading this is a Linnaean genus, erected to commemorate some of his least
favorite in-laws.
