Wurtz flask and Engler flask - what's the difference?

On a simple search, the Wurtz (or Würtz) flask appears to be the round bottom flask with a tall neck, which may or may not have a ground glass joint, with the neck having a side arm, either straight or slightly bent near the connection. But when I search for Engler flask, I get the same type of flask.
Are these two the same (just different names) or are there any differences between them?
