Krecsák, L. (2007)[edit]

the synonyms were reviewed in this paper: Krecsák, L. (2007). An account of the generic and specific names, and type specimens of viperid taxa described by Albert Franz Theodor Reuss (Squamata: Viperidae). Zootaxa 1514: 1-36. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.92.87.108 (talk) 09:43, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One has only to study the synonymy of this species to know that Reuss was an idiot, or at the very least a very controversial figure in his time. Therefore, the article above should make an interesting read... if only it were freely available. If there's one think I've come to dislike almost as much as the commercial software industry, it's the commercial academic publishing industry. --Jwinius (talk) 11:36, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
