Assistance

Our heartfelt thanks go to people who have made this project possible by helping with every aspect of it -- guiding us in the field, identifying problematic specimens, offering access to field sites, facilitating collecting permits, hosting us during our fieldwork, sharing information of many kinds, rallying support, reviewing manuscripts and lists, mapping, lending and donating specimens, and many, many other acts of personal and intellectual generosity.

The acknowledgement list continues to grow (although this Web page may sometimes lag behind); we sincerely regret any unintentional omissions.
