Trochulus not a valid name
editI should like to point out that Trochulus is not a valid name. Read for the sound reasons page 147 in:
- Falkner, G., Ripken, T.E.J., Falkner, M., 2002. Mollusques Continentaux de France: Liste de Référence Annotée et Bibliographie. -- Museum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris, 350 pp.; ISBN2.85653.539.9.
It is obvious that Trochulus should be renamed into Trichia W. Hartmann 1840.--Tom Meijer (talk) 10:17, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- As I am sure you know, for our basic taxonomy here on WP, we have to follow a "reliable source" and we were following the usage on AnimalBase for all our land snail basics. However, if you ever want to add a note to this article saying that these authors considered this name to be invalid in 2002, and give a ref, that would be really great! By the way, our project has 25,000 articles and no more than 25 workers, so if you want to make sure someone reads your note, please leave it on the gastropod project talk page, that way it will be seen for sure!
