FROM THE CHAIR OF THE NOMENCLATURE Harold and me, started. We had many discussions about what COMMITTEE changes could make the system more efficient and how to implement these changes so that they were relatively Dr. Jutta Zipfel transparent to submitters, associated editors, and the Since 2005, the president of the Meteoritical Society has Nomenclature Committee members. appointed seven new members, among whom are G. Benedix, Harold worked hard to structure the editorship in a way H. Chennaoui, H. Connolly, W. Hsu, C. Smith, and that permitted the new goals to be achieved. Major changes A. Yamaguchi. I welcome these new members and wish them include: 1) an increased number of associate editors (Caroline successful years on the committee. I also thank members that Smith and Gretchen Benedix were appointed as associate rotated off the committee during this time, R. Harvey, editors for from Northwest Africa and Akira M. Kimura, D. Kring, Y. Lin, and H. Palme, for their time and Yamaguchi for meteorites from Asia and the Pacific); 2) a effort spent working on the committee. On behalf of the entire regular review and voting schedule, the dates of which are Committee I extend special thanks to S. Russell and announced on our Web page; 3) templates for tables and short M.

This is especially important to authors of papers and abstracts nomenclature, collecting, and dealing. I look forward to because editors of various journals, including Meteoritics & future visits to the Tucson show, seeing the many new friends Planetary Science and Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, and colleagues. will no longer publish papers that contain provisional or unofficial meteorite names. I encourage everyone working in Noteworthy Recovery the field of meteoritics to use our new online database. On The office of the editor, the entire Nomenclature Committee, behalf of the entire committee, we are most grateful to Jeff for and all of the Meteoritical Society congratulate Steve Arnold his hard work in creating and maintaining this online service of Arkansas, USA, Phil Mani of Texas, USA, and their for all communities. colleagues for the recovery of a whopping 650 kg of During the last two years it has been tremendously ! helpful to rely on the support of Herbert Palme, president of the Meteoritical Society. President Palme regards the The New Look of the Meteoritical Bulletin Nomenclature Committee as currently the most important With this edition, the presentation of the Meteoritical Bulletin committee among all committees of the Meteoritical Society. changes. We hope to continue to make changes, as we feel With his support, we have finally brought about new they are needed to meet our goals of better serving the structures to serve the needs of the various meteorite communities. This edition presents the descriptions or basic communities. In part, the increasing number of newly classification information for over 400 meteorites, 99% of recovered and classified meteorites motivated the committee which are new recoveries, either finds or falls. Keeping with to make many of these changes. I would like to stress that our goals of presenting consistent data tables and meeting the needs of the various meteorite communities may descriptions, some meteorites typically published in the require additional changes in the coming year. It is my Meteoritical Bulletin, such as those from the United States of aspiration that all meteorite communities—scientists, America’s Antarctic collection, will be published in the classifiers, collectors, dealers, and all interested in March 2007 edition. Due to a low number of meteorites meteorites—will benefit equally from these. recovered from Asia, Europe, and other planets, these are presented only in descriptive format. FROM THE EDITOR In closing, I need to thank many people who help to produce this volume and who were supportive in the last year Harold C. Connolly, Jr. when many issues surrounding the Meteoritical Bulletin were In February 2006 I attended the Tucson Gem and Mineral in transition. It is critical to recognize the amazing team of Show, held in the great city of Tucson, Arizona, USA. It was associate editors. They are co-authors of the Meteoritical an amazing learning experience. For the first time I met many Bulletin, and they serve the society by performing what is dealers, collectors, and classifiers from around the world. I often tedious work. This past year, they all worked extremely had the great pleasure of meeting and discussing many issues hard to improve communication between the Nomenclature surrounding meteoritics with Ms. A. Black, Mr. M. Taylor, Committee, the Meteoritical Bulletin, submitters, and Mr. E. Olson, Mr. J. Scharder, Mr. Martin Horejsi, Mr. classifiers, and I deeply thank them. I am very appreciative of M. Farmer, Mr. R. Verish, Mr. G. Heslep, Mr. R. Wesel, M. B. Tim Jull, the editor of Meteoritics & Planetary Science, Fectay, Mme. C. Bidaut, and many others. I attended Mr. M.
