Dear Mike,

I don't know what group you work on, but in insects MOST of the old types, therefore the most important ones, of North Americanspecies are held in European collections. I know that this applies to other groups as well. Don't think that this problem only applies to Southern Hemisphere countries.

As a taxonomist working in a country where most of the types are held in northern hemisphere institutions, with our access to them severely restricted, I strongly support your principle. Imagine how the Americans or Europeans would feel if the types of their flora were locked away on another continent!

Yours,
