Recognising "Elusor" lavarackorum as a synonym.[edit]

Not sure there is any value in this as its not actually a taxonomic delineation. The species was initially proposed for endangered status under the binomen Elusor lavarackorum in an instrument ie a paper presented to parliament for action, not a publication claiming to make a taxonomic amendment. Not sure there is any benefit in listing an error that has been forgotten. Faendalimas (talk) 10:44, 4 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure either. Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 23:38, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
