List of Holarctic butterflies - text or formatted file

[Markku Savela]

[I posted this some days ago, but it appears to be not going out from
my usual news server... ]

I have an incomplete and (taxonomically) messy list of butterflies
which tries to include as many names as I can get my hands on. It
should inlcude all species mentioned in the D'Abrera's Holarctic
Butterflies, but it also includes many more. Currently, extracting
just the holarctic ones would require some additional work to generate
such a list.

Beware also: I just enter the names, and when using multiple sources,
I may enter names separately that are really synonyms, according to
some studies. But, I prefer to have all names entered, rather than
leaving anything out, and I will combine synonyms when I get the info.

The current lists are on page

	http://www.funet.fi/pub/sci/bio/life/warp/index.html

and specificically, the list that includes all butterflies I have so
far entered into the system is

	http://www.funet.fi/pub/sci/bio/life/warp/lepidoptera-6-list.html

(beware, this is large file, about 4700 taxons, in about 300Kb HTML
file).

*NOTE*	Do not bookmark "lepidoptera-6-list.html" directly! The number
	is just currently in use and may change as I add more data
	into the system. Bookmark the warp/index.html, or
