piranha Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 The Great Gerd Geyer has named a new trilobite species in my honor: Acanthomicmacca morrisoni. Included among the various species of Acanthomicmacca are: A. walcotti, A. neltneri, A. hupei n. sp., named after Charles Walcott, Louis Neltner and Pierre Hupé. I’m especially grateful to be immortalized with some of the legends of trilobite research and discovery. Geyer, G. 2016 Taxonomy of the ‘Micmacca ’ Group, New Cambrian Chengkouiidae (Trilobita) from Morocco, and their bearing on Intercontinental Correlation.

Kane Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 That's an incredible honour, and in keeping with some excellent company (in my field, it would be the equivalent of being linked to H. Bergson). Well done! ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
