Please suggest town names! (Theme: Scientific names of Plants or Arthropods)

[0xalis]

As you might guess from my current towns name, Oxalis, I have a thing for binomial nomenclature.
[Oxalis is a genus of plants in the Oxalidaceae family, otherwise known as woodsorrels or Shamrock plants.]

My main interests include Plants and Bugs, especially spiders!

& Since I am planning on buying a second copy of ACNL I need another name!

So if you can find any Family or Genus names of cool plants or arthropods (bonus points for spiders!!!) that fit into the town name character limit... please post them here!!!!!

And as an incentive... I'll throw a few tbt your way if I pick your suggestion!

I've always liked Allium, Comosus, Nucifera, and Alata C:

the Hyllus spider is wicked in my opinion!
Cosmophasis as well. (i like jumping spiders)

they look like little puppies with big eyes begging you to touch and play with them. *w*

hmm, maybe cyperus, iris, thalia, marsilea, lilium. those are all a genus of different plant families. theres a lot of interesting sciencey plant names, but those seem to be the most euphonious to me!

I'm loving all of these so much I might have to use a random number generator just to figure out which one to use hahaha ♥O♥

a pretty one: Plumeria

 

[oswaldies]

Lumina​

If only the character limit where a bit longer, I would have gone with Chionodoxa. Glory of the snow are so pretty and they're in bloom right now ♥__♥

i find the marsilea plants to be quite cute (they look like little clovers!), and it fits the 8 count! a plus for it sounding pretty.
