It should not be a problem if you use the language of the people from
the area where the Australian phenotype was taken. I think that it
should be the procedure for selection of common names for any future
splits in Australia.

There are many other suitable indigenous names such as Djanna (help me Denise Goodfellow did I get it right?). A nice thought to use an indigenous name but it may be a Pandora's box not worth opening. Greg Clancy |
