Locality names,

[Vr. Richard Bejsak-Colloredo-Mansfeld]

When I compiling database of Tenebrionidae I cross some small problem...
In few years ago published paper I get localities from Somalia like Garoe,
Eil, Nogal valley, Gardo, Karim... , etc I have been able to locate only few
town like Gardo (in Reader's Digest Atlas) alias Quardho (Encarta Atlas) ,
Karin, Garoowe... ,
.. and something cross my mind....
I would like to know, when You publish the papers do you check localities
and give them proper name like Garoe (=Garoowe), or you just transcript what
is on the label?
How to find correct spelling of the place and What is a correct spelling
anyway... (like how many names has Peking/Beijing or Praha/Prag/Prague)


Keep care and be of good cheer

Regards
