Geochelone > Astrochelys[edit]

This species now belongs to the genus Astrochelys (Astrochelys radiada). Source: Fritz, U. & O. R. P. Bininda-Emonds 2007. When genes meet nomenclature: Tortoise phylogeny and the shifting generic concepts of Testudo and Geochelone. Zoology 110:298-307

As some Wikis still name it Geochelone I am not sure whether I should just change it here or better leave a note in the wikis first. --AxelStrauss 10:08, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed that Astrochelys radiata exists, already, but only when searching for Astrochelys; Astrochelys radiata instead is a redirect to Geochelone radiata. Therefore, this page here should be deleted and the redirect should be the article. --AxelStrauss 12:12, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
