...<i>Isn't this the same list you made on Palaeos?</i><br /><br />Comes from the same place, effectively. ;)<br /><br /><i>Why Panhexapoda instead of Pancrustacea?</i><br /><br />They're both there. Panhexapoda is a subgroup of Pancrustacea.<br /><br /><i>Why so many gastropods?</i><br /><br />Because the world is home to a <i>lot</i> of gastropods. The question you <i>should</i> be asking is "why so few insects?"—because my coverage of insects is still a little rudimentary.<br /><br /><i>Shouldn't Ammonites go under Cephalopods? I remember you had a blog on them</i><br /><br />Read the intro to the index, where I point out that links are still being added to the page.<br /><br /><i>Why Cetferungulata instead of Cetartiodactyla?</i><br /><br />"Cetferungulata" is a larger group, also including carnivorans and perissodactyls.<br /><br /><i>Why Calceria and Hyalospongiae instead of Hexactinellida or Demospongiae or Porifera?</i><br /><br />Hexactinellida and Demospongiae are subgroups of Hyalospongiae (sponges producing siliceous spicules). Most people doubt that Porifera are monophyletic but there's still a lot of work needs doing in this area.<br /><br /><i>When do you get your degree?
