Sources[edit]

I am wondering, wheter this article is a fake. The first reference does not say anything to the species. The second one I have no access to. Google does not give much information, and most of the information is based on this article. What do you think? Regards --IKAl (talk) 08:05, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
