The Bosses are as follows
Gaspare DiGregorio 1965-67 Paul Sciacca 1967-1971 Natale "Joe Diamond" Evola 1971-1973 Rusty Rastelli officially the boss 1973-1985 Carmine Galante was acting Boss circa 1975-1979
The Bonannos didn't have a Commission seat but these were the recognized heads of the Family.
In the case of Lilo fighting for a Commission seat, I don't know but I would say Galante probably didn't give a damn. The moves he was making didn't seem he was trying to be cooperative

According to Massino's testimony, Galante started claiming to be the official boss in summer 1977, leading to his conflict with Rastelli.
Interesting that 40 years later Joe Cammarano tried to make himself the official boss to oust Mancuso and it also failed I believe that's how it happened but the question is who really had the power on the street? The Galante hit did involve the Gambinos, so was Rusty powerful enough to take Galante on?
