Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Thanks Mike. I didn't have mexicana. Add B. c. melanogaster to the list for a total of 11 so far.

Technically, though, an intergrade is the breeding of two subspecies in an area of range overlap. If there is no range overlap, then it is not really an intergrade.
|
That's good to know Harold. If an intergrade is a breeding among two subspecies in an area of range overlap, then is there a particular name for a breeding of two subspecies where there is no range overlap?

Many of the larger "Hog Islands" that we see are not from Cayos de Cochinos, but are lighter specimens taken from mainland Honduras.
|
I thought Hoggs came from Cayos de Cochinos originally, but when the island became depleated they were collected from other nearby islands. I was not aware that they were also collected from the mainland. Thanks for that tidbit.

Thanks for your post Jake. We have listed melanogaster, but not sigma. I have not heard of that one. Where does it come from? Art
