Etymology of species name in Chiloglanis polypogon

Post by lfinley58 »

Hi all.

Another for the Cat-eLog:

The following is from the original description of Chiloglanis polypogon (Mochokidae):

"Etymology. - The name polypogon (noun in apposition, from the Greek "poly," multiple, and "pogon," beard)refers to the numerous mental barbels."

Lee, thanks for all these updates.

Can I make one small "workflow improving" suggestion: If instead of using the italic [i]...[/i] tags, you use [clog]...[/clog] to provide the name of the species, I can just click on the name and get directly to the species to edit it, rather than either editing your post to change the [i] to [clog], or navigating through several menus. Of course, I appreciate that you are doing this as a favour to us, so if it feels like "Oh, if I have to do those extra steps, I might just as well not bother", please do continue as you are...

[I have intentionally disabled the parsing of BBCode for this post, so that tags show --Mats]

Hi Mats,

Not a problem re using clog vs italics. But, to be sure in that I have not used clog before - do I just highlight the word and click on clog? I will try below to see.


Is that what you want?

Edit after doing a preview: So that is how you do that. Thanks for the little lesson.
