missing the neotropics
I as well wish Frank the best and cannot help but laud praise on the tremendous work he has done.
As well I think the future of the IOC list looks bright and I look forward to the continued convergence of world taxonomic lists. I am a great fan of the careful balance of expedient reaction to publications with expert advice and long term accuracy that is achieved by IOC.
Cheers to all involved as well as to all others who are involved in taxonomic committees - none work in a vacuum and all contribute to onward progress!
