> Subject: [RML] Fishes of Sahul 11/1
> Date: Tuesday, April 01, 1997 11:00 AM
>
> Today I received Fishes of Sahul Vol. 11 no. 1 March 1997. A tremedously
fine made magazine with
> wonderful photos and a whole lot of information. However, there is at
least one point I want to discuss with
> the list members - if they want, too.
>
> It is the classification Gunter proposes for the rainbowfish. I strongly
disagree with it in nearly all points.
> Of course I see the groups he mentions, but I find that there are more
groups, at least for the NG species,
> and that in nearly all other groups the species are arranged incorrectly.
>
> To give one example: Of course there is a maccullochi group, however, I
think that M. sexlineata and also
> M. papuae belong into this group, while pygmaea to my opinion does not
belong to the nigrans group but to
> the australis group.
>
> Hope to hear from you.
