Taxonomic manuscripts describing new taxa should contain a key, either new or

modified from an existing key. Long keys should include numbers in parentheses to refer the

reader back to earlier couplets as in the following modified excerpt of a key published by Porter

& Pesquero (2001) in Florida Entomologist 84, pp. 696-697.
