I would be happy to translate the Esperanto descriptions
if you want me to. I do know of one journal in Europe
that would print such a description, and there may well
be a few in China, as the Chinese government has taken an
interest in the language. Of course, it would
not be valid as a description of a new taxon without
at least a few words of Latin thrown in. Actually, the
structure of the language is so simple that if you were
to buy a dictionary you could learn within an hour how
to translate it yourself.
   Incidentally, a dozen people wrote to me off-list
yesterday to offer kind words of support concerning
my Balkan comments. So, to the person who insulted me,
Pfffffft!
