permits for visiting scholars

[Alec McClay]

Count me as one more voice in support of the idea of a centralized
information source on permit requirements for foreign collectors. This will
be of great help to biological control researchers conducting foreign
exploration studies. Even partial or anecdotal information on a country's
procedures will be much better than nothing.
