nymphology

"The scientific study of nymphs." (Created by Wonderfool.) Judging by Google Books, this word does not relate to any butterfly or larva, but to the mythological nymph, which could hardly be studied scientifically! Equinox ◑ 18:15, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Appears in the OED marked "rare" and defined as the "study of mythological nymphs". — Sgconlaw (talk) 19:21, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

 Done Okay, I've removed the "scientific" bit, and added 3 citations regarding poetry etc. Equinox ◑ 16:23, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
