Should we add 'metamorph' in the Age box?
It was suggested by spinifer, what is everyone's thought?

Yeah, why not. The more choices, the better.

I tacked this on to another thread, so incase anyone missed it, here was my reasoning.
I use this designation for amphibians alot in my notes and think it is a better descriptor than YoY.

Stupid Question I have been meaning to ask....someone please define a YoY. Is it yearling or younger?
Re: Should we add 'metamorph' in the Age box?
I believe it means either "Year of Young" or "Year or Younger" - I use it to mean the latter.Biker Dave wrote:Stupid Question I have been meaning to ask....someone please define a YoY. Is it yearling or younger?
Re: Should we add 'metamorph' in the Age box?
I think it actually means "young of year."

But wouldnt young of year be the same as neonate?

I believe "neonate" refers to animals that just hatched, less than 3 or 4 weeks old.
