Talk:Chytrid

Use of little known common name of "Chytrid" for this Division of the Fungi was unwarranted (unsupported by text) and inconsistent with treatment of article titles for other Fungi divisions - Marshman 18:13, 22 Jan 2004 (UTC)

It's not little known. The term chytrids is extremely common, at least, when discussing relationships and origins of fungi. On google, chytrids gets about 2/3 as many hits as chytridiomycota. As for the inconsistency, it's because our policy is to use common names first, but the other fungal divisions don't have common names. I would strongly recommend that this page be moved back. -- Josh
