Should the clade (kingdom) that results from the subtraction of the
Protozoa from the old "Animalia" still be called Animalia, or Metazoa?
There is no Code to govern this. Protistologists all seem to opt for
Metazoa, but zoologists and general public seem not to want to let go
of Animalia. Is there any literature discussing this issue? Anybody
got an opinion?
