Zoologist/rugby star?
[edit]This species is named for Richard Alfred How, born 1944, an Australian zoologist at the Western Australian Museum, Perth. There is a WP article for a Richard Allen How, also born 1944, who was an Australian rugby star in 1967. Does anyone know if this is the same person? Was Dr. How a rugby player in his youth?

- To the best of my knowledge Rick How the Zoologist from WAM did not play Rugby (at least at an international level) I did know him when he was at the WAM as I am also a Zoologist formally from Australia and had dealings with the Western Australian Museum. Also I am fairly certain Rick was not from NSW but was native to Western Australia in which case it would be doubtful he played Rugby since that state plays Australian Rules football. So I would think not the same person. Cheers Faendalimas talk 11:47, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
