[Taxacom] Mystery author?

[Stephen Thorpe]

Thanks!

makes life difficult for parsers! At least the Zoological Record (http://www.organismnames.com/query.htm?q=Bleheratherina&searchType=simple&so ) have parsed Aarn and Walter Ivantsoff as Aarn Ivantsoff  and Walter Ivantsoff

Robin,

Yes, he is an Australian ichthyologist -- often publishing with Walter
Ivantsoff, also of Australia.
Aarn is an Aust aboriginal name -- just one name! His refs come first
