    Photography-based taxonomy is inadequate, unnecessary, and potentially harmful for biological sciences
    Magnolia Press ; 2016

    Abstract: The question whether taxonomic descriptions naming new animal species without type specimen(s) deposited in collections should be accepted for publication by scientific journals and allowed by the Code has already been discussed in Zootaxa (Dubois & Nemésio 2007; Donegan 2008, 2009; Nemésio 2009a–b; Dubois 2009; Gentile & Snell 2009; Minelli 2009; Cianferoni & Bartolozzi 2016; Amorim et al. 2016). This question was again raised in a letter supported by 35 signatories published in the journal Nature (Pape et al. 2016) on 15 September 2016. On 25 September 2016, the following rebuttal (strictly limited to 300 words as per the editorial rules of Nature) was submitted to Nature, which on 18 October 2016 refused to publish it. As we think this problem is a very important one for zoological taxonomy, this text is published here exactly as submitted to Nature, followed by the list of the 493 taxonomists and collection-based researchers who signed it in the short time span from 20 September to 6 October 2016.

    What really hampers taxonomy and conservation? A riposte to Garnett and Christidis (2017)
    Magnolia Press ; 2017
    In:  Zootaxa Vol. 4317, No. 1 ( 2017-09-01)

    Abstract: Responding to purported taxonomic anarchy, in an article published in the widely read journal Nature, Garnett & Christidis (2017) [hereafter GC] opined on the need for “standardized global species lists”, at the behest of conservationists, and proposed the construction of a judicial committee to “restrict … freedom of taxonomic action” and promote taxonomic stability. Here we reflect on this perspective and contest that the view of GC conflicts with some basic and indisputable principles underpinning the philosophy of science, most notably: it must be free. They appear to believe that taxonomic revisions should be based on political, economic and conservation concerns, and they treat species as fixed real entities, instead of refutable scientific hypotheses. In addition to such theoretical misconceptions, GC did not consider important practical aspects of what they term taxonomic anarchy, most significantly the participation of conservationists as authors of taxonomic works, and the importance of alternative management units, a well-established discussion in conservation biology.

    Hoya phuwuaensis (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae), a new species from Northeastern Thailand
    Magnolia Press ; 2016

    Abstract: The new species, Hoya phuwuaensis is described and illustrated. It was discovered in Phu Wua Wildlife Sanctuary, Bueng Kan Province, northeastern Thailand. Hoya phuwuaensis is similar to the widespread and common species H. caudata. Both species have prominent mottling of silver spots on the adaxial leaf surface and positively geotropic inflorescences with slender peduncles. However, the new species can be distinguished from H. caudata by its elliptic leaf with cuneate base, obovate-oblong corona lobe and triangular anther appendages.Brown, R.
