	Who's In a Name: Sir Joseph Banks
		English naturalist John Richardson (1787-1865; the 'Richardson' in the full name of the plant) traveled with John Franklin, leader of an eventually disastrous expedition (their hair-raising journal is online) to explore the North American shores of the Arctic Ocean, during the years 1819-1822.
		But when Banks was examining Richardson's early specimens, in late 1819 or early 1820, and came to the honeysuckle, perhaps he wrote "Lonicera" on the herbarium sheet, or in some other way made it be known what genus he thought it belonged to.
		Richardson is recognized for first naming the plant and coining the specific epithet, but he assigned it to a genus whose members were not long after transferred to Lonicera.

		Richardson subsequently wrote an important scientific paper on the fishes of Japan and China, describing around 80 new fish species that were based entirely on these drawings.
		When John Richardson first described it in 1846, it was thought to be distinct from the common carp (Cyprinus carpio), however it is now considered to just be a variety, and its current scientific name is Cyprinus carpio var.
