Hello,

And guess what is inside ? The explanation of thye ii mystery  <img src="images/smiley/lol.gif" alt="" border="0" /> When some dedicate a species to someone (human) he transforms the name with "us". Then Two cases appears : <u>The name does not already finish by a "i"</u> ====> Name = <b>cuvier</b> => <i>Conus Cuvierus</i> Then "us" bcomes "i"================><i>Conus Cuvieri</i> <u>The name does already finish by a "i"</u> ====> Name =<b> cuvieri </b>=> <i>Conus Cuvierius</i> Then "ius" bcomes "ii"================><i>Conus Cuvierii</i> I hope my english is not too bad   Regards, DAVID  <span class="petit">--Last edited by David Touitou on 2007-07-15 20:55:18 --</span> |
