Talk:Gloger's rule

Latitude error
In the statement "the need to better utilize the sun's UV radiation with decreasing latitude", shouldn't that be "increasing latitude"? There is less UV radiation available for Vitamin D production at 80 degrees latitude (above the Arctic Circle) than at 10 degrees latitude, and so there is less need for pigments to block UV. "Increasing latitude" = "decreasing UV radiation". Chris the speller (talk) 15:27, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, it does seem like the correction you suggest is right. http://www.nas.nasa.gov/About/Education/Ozone/radiation.html Shyamal (talk) 11:16, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
