The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature finds no basis under the provisions of the Code for regarding the name Spracklandus as unavailable, nor for regarding any of issues 1–24 of Australasian Journal of Herpetology as being unpublished in the sense of the Code, but the Commission has declined to use its powers to confirm what is obvious. The Commission is not empowered to take Appendix A of the Code (Code of Ethics) into account in its rulings on this or any other Case.
