        The intial interest is encouraging!  What i had in mind was not one or
two definitive, authoritative photos for each species, but rather a list
of links to photos of as many species and forms as possible: the more
the merrier.    It would be worthwhile for dealers to submit lists of
links to their new photos periodically, and many collectors would also
no doubt be glad to participate.  On can envision a vast storehouse of
links being built up this way.  Experts could be called upon
periodically to verify or correct identifications of the families they
are most familiar with.   If some participants supplied reliable data
for their contributions, that could be also included.
        So, if we can find a few good men and women to plan and execute
something along these lines, i think we could soon have something
extremely valuable!!
