[NHCOLL-L:3623] Re: Natural history museum (fish systematics) Listservers in Japan

[Mariko Kageyama]

One of the largest listservs for systematic biologists in Japan is TAXA administered by the Union of Japanese Societies for Systematic Biology. There are over 800 subscribers, mainly university and museum-based taxonomists and evolutionary biologists, including ichthyologists. Messages are posted primarily in Japanese or in English with Japanese translation. Try contacting the list-owner, Dr. Nobuhiro Minaka (taxa-admin＠ml.affrc.go.jp) for further assistance.

Good day
 

  
 

Does anyone know of large listservers (well-subscribed) in South
America, Europe, China ,
 Japan and
Australia/New Zealand?  We need to reach as many people as we can who are
active in fish taxonomy and systematics, or at least in the area of natural
history museum collections.  If anyone knows of listservers dedicated to
fish systematics (preferably all fish, but even specific taxa) that are within
the NHCOLL-L ‘distribution range’, that would also be useful information.
 

  
 

I searched the L-Soft Catalog for ‘fish’ and this
resulted in quite a few lists created for the purposes of sharing ‘fish
camp’ experiences, but also EUROFISH-L at NIC.MUSEUM. ‘Taxonomy’
didn’t produce very promising results.  ‘Systematics’
resulted in CICHLID-L at NIC.MUSEUM,
which looks very useful.
 

  
 

Perhaps there are lists / discussion fora(ums) that do not
employ the Listserv software.  
 

  
 

Thank you
