I would have thought that deciding on the best bird taxonomy was a very easy
business:
1. Read all possible works on bird taxonomy 2. Adopt all splits that will give you extra species 3. Pooh-pooh any splits that won't give you new species4. Be open to changing you mind in cases falling under point 3 if, subsequently, you do happen to see an extra form. :-) John L &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& John Leonard (Dr) http://www.webone.com.au/~jleonard PO Box 243, Woden, ACT 2606, Australia &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& _________________________________________________________________Get less junk mail with ninemsn Premium.
