[Taxacom] Important note Re: two names online published - one new species

[Stephen Thorpe]

Doug,

I'm not sure that this was at all helpful! The addition of the archive info isn't date stamped (at least not for public view). Now the record misleadingly looks like valid online first publication on 4 January 2016: http://zoobank.org/References/07554C01-DEC3-4080-A337-B1F46BC9070F

As far as I know, the print edition may not be published yet (all we know is that it is the January 2016 print issue, which could be published in February for all we know). So there may be no way to determine the true date of availability for the new names. Even if we can get a definitive date on the hard copy, this doesn't help much, unless it is on or before 4 January 2016.

 I sent a note to the authors of the
 Kinzelbachilla paper (who had not 
 been CCed before as Mike Engel had), and they said they have
 fixed the 
 ZooBank record so it now includes the archive. Accordingly,
 for the 
 public record, if we follow the guideline as Rich suggested,
 all of the 
 criteria for availability have now been fulfilled for the
 name in their 
 work.
 
 Most interesting of all, however, if that they disagree
 regarding these 
 two papers describing the same taxon, despite both being
 from 
 essentially the same type of amber deposit:
 
 "By the way, it is not the same thing, the eyes, for
 instance, are 
 strikingly different."
 
 In other words, this may not be a matter of competing for
 priority, 
 after all, as Hans had originally supposed.
 
 Peace,
