Re: Species maintenance by affliate clubs: collection sites

[AUS62 at aol_com]

I stand corrected, Ron. I did not know there were so many and, in fact, some 
are not listed in Langton's latest book on Wild Collections. This brings up a 
real deficiency in our setup to accurately ID collection sites. Many are 
simply a personal thing -- including the collection maps and no hard data is 
submitted to any sort of official body. For untold years (nothing personal, 
Roger) only Roger Langton has been trying to collect all the data and issue 
it in a book. Still, no maps are available and who knows where collection 
site Number 28 is located other than the collector himself? There should be 
an official spot to gather all this data, including copies of maps to make it 
useful to the rest of us. OK, Roger -- let's bug the BOT to setup such an 
apparatus! Just kidding, but this needs "doing."

At this juncture, the KCC must accept a killifish from any given collection 
spot for a population even if it is not in Roger's fine book. The book is a 
great resource and I, for one, use it frequently. Thanks, Roger for all your 
hard work.
