In taxonomy, priority rules (and tongue rolling doesn't). D. albus was named in 1966 and D. diversicolor in 1970; since they're now considered the same, the earlier name (albus) has priority.nwscubamom wrote:Bummer, I liked the way Dendronotus diversicolor rolled off the tongue. Why couldn't they have kept THAT name and nuked albus?? We may never know....
