Stunning, stunning, stunning.

Unfortunately, one of the stunning things about it is that there is no phylogenetic analysis. Grand pronouncements about the total uprooting of Paleogene primate phylogeny, yes, but no analysis. Just a few characters optimized on a tree with three (!) taxa, one of which is *Darwinius*.

Does PLoS ONE "deposit at least 100 identical and durable copies in public libraries on at least five continents"? If not, the name *Darwinius masillae* does not exist according to the ICZN...
