All, I am very worried that once any group starts demanding strict prior= ity, foolish or misthought definitions and specifier choices of plastic or= variable "taxa" will be used, to cause clade name application to far exceed in= tent and even use. There must be some plasticity without having to appeal to a= board for decisions, yet preserve the sense of adherence of priority in some wa= y. I do not have a solution, however. Cheers, Jaime A.
