Comments on: New Primate Species is New Genus http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/new-primate/ for Bigfoot, Loch Ness, and More Fri, 09 Jan 2009 13:38:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: Ranatemporaria http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/new-primate/#comment-3044 Ranatemporaria Fri, 12 May 2006 09:42:03 +0000 http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/new-primate-species-is-new-genus/#comment-3044 Here is <a href="http://www.life.uiuc.edu/whitfield/systdisc/Taxonomic_Inflation.pdf">an interesting paper</a> on "Taxonomic Inflation" In it; it deals with increase in primate species number, not through discovery but via problems of taxonomic description and defining exactly what is a species!?. It also mentions the fact that "most species" are un-described by science. A conundrum for biology, and i'm sure cryptozoology.

And I agree every new one discovered helps our cause that unknowns do exist and are out their.

Good stuff. Every one like this makes it more likely that the biologists are more likely to listen next time and not dismiss cases immediately.

See, there IS hope! An entire new GENUS, in 16 (or more) groups of up to 36 (or more) animals, right under our noses!

See, there IS hope!
