Sügislase (Sügislane)

Lit. Autumn-dweller, the Autumn silkworm moth, Lemonia dumi, rare in Estonia, although a bit more common on the western coastline. Before the street was built, this was the name the original land-owner wanted. The street-names commission, following guidelines, proposed the historical toponym of Potissepa (potter) after the name of the farm originally on the site: rejected. They then proposed a list of other butterfly names already reserved for the zone: rejected too. So the street-names commission is not always to blame ;o). Part of a lepidopteran group. See also Täpiku.
