    Default N00b question - Numbers before frogs

    Hi,

    I might be speaking for many by asking this, and if I am not, I'm quite happy being alone in my ignorance... But, what are the numbers you often see in front of a frog species, and where can you find a list of these numbers.

    Example:

    0.0.3 A.Galactonotus 'Red'
    3.1.0 A. Hahneli
    2.3.0 A.Trivittatus 'Red'
    0.1.0 D.Tinctorius 'New River'
    3.1.0 E. Anthonyi 'Salvias'

    Thank you,

    Eric

    Generally it means males, females, and undetermined; so tadpoles could technically fit in the last spot.

    1.1.0 Dendrobates Lamasi 'Orange'

    Your also looking at a N00b! More of a N00b then you. I'm a frogless N00b! Does that make me N00bless?
