I haven't seen this paper; what journal is it in?

The North American hylids are, I think, very similar to the lampropeltiins in their taxonomic issues; the generalized groups which closely resemble their extralimital relatives are the ancestors of the specialized New World taxa, and so paraphyletic taxonomy is common.

Of course none of this is relevant to the OP's question. I think I'll start a general taxonomy/nomenclature discussion thread in the scientific research forum.
