If Lophotrochozoa is a synonym of Bilateralia, as I believe it is, I certainly hope Bilateralia was cladistically defined first, so that it will have priority. ...... Do we really need formal taxa Altungulata, Pseudoungulata, Uranotheria, Behemota, Tethytheria, Afrotheria, Cetartiodactyla (= Eparctocyona ?), or even "oldies" like Glires and Archonta. ....... Uniramia is as dead as a doornail as far as I am concern, but I betcha somebody's going to give it a formal cladistic definition.> Do we have validations for these statements of taxonomic supression? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
