Great post, thanks for sharing this!



I'm sure this info will raise some questions on a few issues.

I would also like to see more of the research behind the new

classifications. While I'm not a big fan of the sub-species level of classification, I'd be curious why some of them were classified as completely separate species, as opposed to lumping all of them into one species.



Regarding the anery issue, and according to the newly proposed taxonomy, maybe the "anery" is just another "phase" of BRB.



Again, thanks for the pics and the information.
