Ms. Barrett, When asked about name changes at society show table discussions, I just tell 'em that some taxonomic Phd. candidate needed a thesis topic, and don't hold your breath before another thesis comes along to refute the previous one...smile! By the way, I follow Braem and O'Byrne in all cases taxonomic... Joe In a message dated 8/14/2008 6:50:52 P.M. Mid-Atlantic Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

They know these name changes occur and ask me questions, which I feel responsible to know how to answer. I suppose I could stand there like a dumb bunny and shrug. But that's not the answer members deserve.
