Team
The BDWD team consists of four co-editors (Evenhuis, Pape, Pont &
Thompson), a custodian (Thompson), a post-doctoral fellow (Lonsdale) and
a network of collaborators (more 60 now). The following is an
alphabetical list of those who have now signed up for the BioSystematic
Database of World Diptera project team. We apologize to those who have
volunteered but are not yet listed as we have been slow in getting
everyone's names on the list.
We have here provided only the minimal information about our team
members, such as their name, institution and location, and their role on
the BDWD team. Also, if they have a personal WWW page, then a link to it
is provided.
While the contributions of each member varies, each member is critical
to the successful completion and continued maintenance of the BDWD. So we
feel all deserve the appropriate recognition and thanks of the whole
BioDiversity Community for their combined effort to build an index and
information portal to 10% of the known Biological Diversity of the World.
Warning: While we have used terms like "author" when
only one person is responsible for a family taxon, "lead for"
to identify the point person who acts for a group of co- authors, and
"contributor to" for co-authors, the final determination of
authorship is not made until a family taxon is published. For those
families which have been published as part of the BDWD, the term author,
qualified with a capital P in parentheses, is used for all authors.
Also, a number of people are here listed as they contributed to the
1988 Nearctic Diptera dataset, which was never formally published but was
transferred to NODC and, hence, to ITIS. The words Nearctic 88 indicates
this contribution.
