[QUOTE="infinity, post: 346635, member: 201"] I work in entomology professionally... BSc, MSc, PhD, postdocs, pest control, biological control, R&D... I have to agree, nothing winds me up more than others in the hobby and real professionals (e.g. biological control companies, scientists/publications etc) who don't use capitals and italics... or worse, use them wrongly! It's [I]Tenodera sinensis[/I] OR [I]T. sinensis[/I] NOT: Tenodera sinensis Tenodera Sinensis tenodera sinensis or just calling it 'Sinensis' It also really bugs me when people give up halfway through in lists: I have: [I]Tenodera sinensis <--- [/I]good [I]Sphodromantis [/I]spp[I]. <--- [/I]good European mantis <--- omg why?!
