Taxonomic vandalism

Taxonomic vandalism is a term used in biology to describe the practice of publishing numerous[1] scientifically unfounded or poorly-justified taxonomic names, often without adequate research[2] or peer review.

[3][4] This phenomenon has been observed across various fields of taxonomy, but has been particularly prevalent in herpetology.
