Millennial-crazed taxonomy

[Geoff Read]

According to Lycos news:

http://ens.lycos.com/ens/jan2000/2000L-01-05-01.html

a newly discovered Australian insect to be formally named "Millennium
Bug" belongs to a new genus of the family Veliidae - small water striders.

One hopes it, and many other species, including H. sapiens, do last
another thousand orbits round the sun.
