Name

[edit]

So why this name? What have these spiders to do with an island off Troy? Septentrionalis 18:42, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good question, probably nothing :) at the time it was usual to give Greek or Latin names to species. Sometimes they had a meaning, sometimes only the describer knows why he named the taxon so. --Sarefo 04:34, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
