Nabokov’s Pug. Just to indicate the thousands of specialized eponymous words that can’t be included here, we might men- tion the butterfly Nabokov’s Pug. It is named for the Russian- born author and lepidopterist Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977), who, most specifically, discovered Eupithecia nabokovi Mc- Donough “on a picture window of [publisher] James Laughlin’s Alta Lodge in Utah” in 1943.
