Browsing Mendeley I found the following record: http://www.mendeley.com/research/description-larva/. This URL is for a paperwhich apparently has the DOI doi:10.1645/GE-2580.1. This is strange because Zootaxa doesn't have DOIs. The DOI given resolves to a paper in the Journal of Parasitology :Now, this paper has it's own record in Mendeley.OK, so this is weird..., but it gets weirder.
