I’m no lepidopterist, but from context I’d guess that it is indeed Nero.
A much maligned Roman emperor, Nero supposedly (but almost certainly not actually) haughtily played some instrument or the other during the Great Fire of Rome.
Hence, “burning a CD-ROM” is easily associated with him even though the story is almost certainly not true and “ROM” (read only memory) was the suffix of the CDs that COULDN’T be burned 🤷
I used Nero. Is this person I’m supposed to be aware of in the picture named Nero or something?

I thought they studied butterflies?
They do, yes. I’m just doing a variant of the “I’m no geologist but (says things that have nothing to do with geology)” meme 😁
