Euro vs US satanas taxa

I see what you mean about the confusion between Euro and NA species. How do you think this should be dealt with here on Wiki? If we have separate pages for each, there will be overlapping material, and the problem of not knowing for sure of the information we're basing the article on is really about the Euro or NA version (checking place of publication and nationality of author might help somewhat).

The issue is whether the CAF website is considered a reliable source (I'd lean yes), but really needs some peer-reviewed literature backing it up. The two Thiers works of '65 and '75 listed on that page would be worth investigating. I beleive the CAF website has the thiers book online somewhere on their website.

PS: Given wikipedia's role is to reflect literature rather than veer into Original Research, I suspect the best way is to highlight there are issues between euro and us classification (as I started to do in the taxonomy section, and also description section, and await some published literature.
