Thanks, Marian, and I guess AVRL is Annapolis Valley Regional =20
Library?  What about the rest of Nova Scotia?  I believe that the =20
Minister of Education back then in the late 1990s, Robbie Harrison, =20
told me that it was placed in every public library in the province, =20
plus every high school library.  Does anyone know if this is true?

This is important for potential users in order to access the most =20
current Latinized names for all species.  And, of course, beware of =20
common names, which are fun but frustrating since they vary from book =20=

to book, authority to authority, and regionally as well!

   Cheers from Jim in Wolfville.
