Where did you find the ID, if not from an ID book????? Thank you!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reefnet 0 Posted July 11, 2009 Where did you find the ID, if not from an ID book????? I'm writing the descriptive text for new species that are being included in our upcoming Marine Creatures Identification DVD (a companion for the Humann & DeLoach creatures and corals books for the Caribbean), so I use published scientific papers as source material. We are roughly doubling the number of species. Many (most?) of the new species are not in any books. Les Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
