摘要
Imprecise and faulty taxonomic identification of the biological objects of many ecological and experimental studies renders these studies irreproducible.Incomplete identification to the species level and excessive use of vernacular species names are additional problems.Good science must be able to be falsified.I recommend that publications and granting agencies use and mention the names of the zoologists or botanists who identified the species.Voucher specimens should be marked and deposited in scientific museums for future checking.
