In fact, many of the so-called "unrecognized species" here in California are recognized on the basis of a new species concept, the so-called "evolutionary species concept," promulgated by cladistic herpetologists from the east.

Me: New species concept? You are kidding, right? Ever hear of George Gaylord Simpson? Ever read his work (not heard of it but actually READ it)? Was he a cladist? Heck, was he a herpetologist? You can look up the answer to that last question.

Once again you have over stepped your bounds (like saying cladists misunderstand evolution) of knowledge which has led you to wrongly disparage scientists you know nothing about.
