RE: "Vide" in genus authorities?

[Jaime Headden <qi_leong@hotmail.com>]

Ack, my bad on the terminology. I've generally used it in the appropriate 
manner, when/where I've actually cited things that may/may not have required 
this (e.g., Megadontosaurus Brown vide Norell, Dingus and Gaffney, 2000). 

Cheers,

do so." --- Douglas Adams (Last Chance to See)

"Ever since man first left his cave and met a stranger with a different 
language and a new way of looking at things, the human race has had a dream: to 
kill him, so we don't have to learn his language or his new way of looking at 
things." --- Zapp Brannigan (Beast With a Billion Backs)
