[edit] Species problem revert
Sure, no problem. Thanks for letting me know! I did it for 2 reasons: first, species concepts are nowhere discussed (but might be there; see that article's Talk and/or that of Species for more). Second, the BSC vs PSC - sp. vs ssp. thing is the most "visible" issue in the debate to the lay reader; I thought it might be of more than passing interest at the state where the page currently stands.
If you can do me a favor though, disentangle PSC and ESC. They're not the same; though both rely heavily on phylogenies, monophyly is the only (AFAIK) "character" relevant in the PSC, whereas in the ESC, a species is a diagnosable (by morphology or whatnot) (mono)phyletic lineage.
If you'd like to do some work on the page or make Species concept an own page one day, drop me a line! Dysmorodrepanis 07:34, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
