I know bugs are not as appealing as birds to may folk..but I was reading recently that if anyone is wanting to have something named after themselves then beatles ( with a small 'b' ) are the way to go...even in these little islands that comprise the UK many species of beatle remain unknown to science... I think I will give it a miss..but there it is for anyone keen to have a six-legged stab at posterity...
Gosh....being of a certain age I am so macerated in things ' Beatle' that I did not notice that spello... But of course you are correct Adam..its 'beetles' that in this context hold the key to name and fame..although I suspect not to riches.
