Just some follow up links regarding counting species which I wrote about recently:

- How Many Species on Earth? It’s Tricky – by Carl Zimmer
- How many species are there? My latest for the New York Times – by Carl Zimmer
- Ed Yong on Google Plus
- Don’t forget to count microbes – Bonnie Bassler and David Hooper letter in the Washington Post
- How Many ‘Kingdoms’ of Life Are There? (Christopher Shea at the Wall Street Journal Blog)
- A general lack of specificity by Jess Davenport
