On April 29, 2021, I received the sad news that David Wake was no more. Despite being somewhat numbed by the relentless news of death and destruction caused by the pandemic, Wake’s passing on raised my lugubriousness much more above the background noise.
Fond memories rushed into my consciousness. I first met David Wake in October 1994, when I visited the University of Berkeley to give a seminar at the invitation of my friend and colleague Wayne M. Getz, a distinguished multi-disciplinary scientist with his deft fingers in many pies, including honey bee kin-recognition, wildlife in Africa, conservation science and mathematical modelling. ....

How a Science Fight Finally Led to World's First Global Species List in 2020

How a Science Fight Finally Led to World s First Global Species List in 2020
STEPHEN GARNETT ET AL., THE CONVERSATION
9 JANUARY 2021
Taxonomy, or the naming of species, is the foundation of modern biology.
It might sound like a fairly straightforward exercise, but in fact it s complicated and often controversial. Why? Because there s no one agreed list of all the world s species.

Competing lists exist for organisms such as mammals and birds, while other less well-known groups have none. And there are more than 30 definitions of what constitutes a species. This can make life difficult for biodiversity researchers and those working in areas such as conservation, biosecurity and regulation of the wildlife trade. ....
