[Taxacom] Da[r]winius media hype (and relationships)

[Barry Roth]

This issue has been raised to the editors and board of PLos:
 
http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/loom/2009/05/20/does-darwinius-exist/
 
which contains some of their responses.  There seems little doubt that an essential element for availability under the ICZN was omitted from the paper as first published.

P.S.  If they overlooked requirements of the International Code for
properly publishing the name Darwinius, they are in for criticism for
that alone.  Makes one wonder who peer-reviewed this article.
