Ah yes, there it is... even though it's not yet mentioned on the Society's 
website.

...The fun part is that all nomenclatural acts must be registered to be valid 
under the ICPN. I wonder if the registration database is up and running. (It 
has supposedly been functional for years, but... I don't even know what its URL 
is supposed to be, and the Society website doesn't mention it.)

These are clade _names_, not clades. _Names_ are defined so they can 
unambiguously apply to clades that _exist_ in nature and are _discovered_, not 
defined.

Ceci n'est pas une pipe...
