I fear we will never agree on this one.

I see the earth the tree and branches. Earth (homo sapiens), tree (humans) , branches (asians, whites, hispanic). You can do the samething with monitors. Earth (varanus), tree (albigularis), branches (ionidesi, microstictus,angolensis).

Now if I got what your saying correctly you say it is merely varanus, then varanus albigularis? In other words instead of being two different types you care calling them cousins? Which in humans would make you both the same branch. You no longer want to use subspecies for some or all because they are all the samething.

Or else I am reading your posts all wrong perhaps?

As for what makes a subspecies if you can't find a reason and need one, just use casue I said so LOL It works for me and it seems to have worked for others.
