So what am I thinking of then? I just goggled an image of Daphnia and all I get is the water flea.

Is there not a Daphnia flower, surely there is?

Would like to say Du Maurier, but have to confess it was Neighbours circa 1986.

My Mum

There is also a butterfly called 'Daphne' - named after my mother (by her uncle, who worked for the Natural History Museum I think).

My mother has always said never, ever give a poor child that name as she loathes it!
