Finland in June

[Rchees6057]

An old story, almost certainly apocryphal:

An English lepidopterist, collecting moths in Finland, became so annoyed and
frustrated with the vast swarms of flies buzzing round his head that he made a
great sweep with his net, bottled up everything he had caught and sent the
catch to the British Museum for identification.
He was later informed that he had seven species new to science!

(End of story)

You don't have to believe the story; just be prepared for the flies!
