"Curious Scientific Names" back on-line

[Doug Yanega]

On a lighter note, my "Curious Scientific Names" webpage has finally
found a home on a new server:

http://cache.ucr.edu/~heraty/yanega.html

As always, if people are aware of names that aren't on that list or
Menke's original list, or can give dates for some of the names that
are listed, I'd be grateful.

Unfortunately, I don't think the things on that page offer convincing
evidence for the scientific legitimacy of taxonomy. ;-)

Peace,
