—The Opinion Page is a forum for views and ideas of potential interest to readers—

Contributions should be sent to the editor.


Since the inception of the Opinion Page feature in the Spring 2003 issue of this newsletter we have received discussion-provoking articles on diverse topics of current interest: The real costs of insect identifications; DNA barcoding; and Bioinformatics and misinformatics.

We do not have an essay for this issue but no doubt many readers have opinions worth sharing. Why not develop a commentary for a future newsletter?
