Anstisia
What is Anstisia? Taxonomic Vandalism
Grant Webster and Ian Bool
Two amateur zoologists, masquerading as scientists have just bootlegged the work of Hoser (2020) to attempt to illegally rename the frog genus Wellingtondella Hoser, 2020, as Anstisia Webster and Bool, 2022.The two thieves even stooped so low as to cite the Wuster et al. (2012) rant, better known as Kaiser et al. (2013) as their justification. Recall the ICZN squashed that plan in 2021 by voting against Kaiser et al. and Rhodin et al. (2015). It goes without saying that the fake science was published in the notorious online PRINO (Peer reviewed in name only) "journal" Zootaxa! The lying thieves even went so far as stealing the work of Hoser (2020), relying on the same diagnostic characters as Hoser, but being so low as to not even cite the work from where they stole their alleged new discovery! If this is not the lowest form of fake science possible, then who knows what is? The Wuster gang of thieves continue to attack the ICZN and the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature and remain the biggest threat to the Code in over 200 years.The original Hoser (2020) paper can be downloaded as pdf and is:
