An other great and older hero is soon celebrating 300 years. Carl August von Linnè is also online. The real grand man of taxa. The Scandinavian scientist most known as a botanist but also a number one in Nordic butterflies and moths. Every times I see a Twinflower Linnea borealis my thoughts goes to Carl August. His Lapland studies and his Norwegian disciples gave us a father person and the founder of Norwegian botanical heritage. Thus also worth wile a Norwegian celebration.
