Abstract:
An urgent need to use a unified nomenclature for cultivated plants was indicated at the beginning of the 20th century by R.E. Regel, A.I. Malzev, K.A. Flyaksberger. Half a century later, an appendix to the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Stockholm, 1952) published the first formulated rules for naming cultivated plants, which provided a basis for the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants issued as a separate edition in 1953. The primary goal of the Code was to eliminate confusion, promote order and uniformity in the naming of new varieties and the use of accepted variety names, i.e. to establish unified nomenclature rules. The main categories of the nomenclature for cultivated plants (cultivar, group, grex) do not represent a hierarchical system. So far, nine editions of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants had been published, of which four were translated into Russian (1953, 1958, 1961 and 1969). The prepared translation of the ninth edition is going to be published in the Vavilovia journal.

Abstract:
The development of an inventory of earth’s biodiversity—identifying and naming all living species—is a central tenet of biological science. For over 250 years, the Linnean system has been the predominant naming approach, with new species designated by a unique Latinized binomina following rules laid out by the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Anonymous 1999; “the Code” below) for animal taxa, while the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants (Turland et al. 2018) is the set of rules dealing with formal botanical names.

Full text
Abstract:
This taxonomic note was motivated by the recent proposal [Oren & Garrity (2014) Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 64, 309–310] to exclude the oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria (cyanobacteria) from the wording of General Consideration 5 of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP), which entails unilateral coverage of these prokaryotes by the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN; formerly the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, ICBN). On the basis of key viewpoints, approaches and rules in the systematics, taxonomy and nomenclature of prokaryotes it is reciprocally proposed to apply the ICNP to names of cyanobacteria including those validly published under the ICBN/ICN. For this purpose, a change to Principle 2 of the ICNP is proposed to enable validation of cyanobacterial names published under the ICBN/ICN rules.

Abstract:
Surprisingly few papers on cyanobacteria have been published in the International Bulletin of Bacteriological Nomenclature and Taxonomy / International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology / International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (IBBNT/IJSB/IJSEM) during its 60 years of existence. The first papers featuring the group appeared in volume 28 and, in the 32 years that have passed since, 42 articles on cyanobacteria have been published in the journal. Very few of these papers deal with the description of new taxa and this is understandable in view of the current difficulty in validly publishing new names of cyanobacteria under the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP). Other papers discuss the problems of the nomenclature of the group under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN)/ICNP and the ICBN. The largest group of articles on cyanobacteria consists of papers on systematics, in which isolates are compared using different approaches, without any implications for the nomenclature of the group under either Code. The fact that on average these papers have been highly cited shows that IJSEM and its predecessors have been an excellent framework for publications on cyanobacteria and should remain so in the future.

Abstract:
The International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants promotes uniformity, accuracy, and stability in the naming of agricultural, forestry and horticultural plants. It governs the nomenclature of such categories as Cultivar, Group and Grex, and provides stability in the rules of their naming avoiding or rejecting the use of names that may cause errors or ambiguities. The first edition of the Code was published in 1953. Currently, the ninth edition of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants is relevant (International Code…, 2016).The first translation of the Code into Russian was made on behalf of the All-Union Botanical Society by Professor Ya.I. Prokhanov and published in 1957. The work on the Russian translation of the ninth edition of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants was initiated by the N.I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources. The scientific translation was carried out by I.G. Chukhina (VIR), S.R. Miftakhova (VIR), and V.I. Dorofeyev (BIN RAS). All parts of the Code, including the Preamble, Principles, Rules, Recommendations, Examples and Appendices, are published in the five issues of the Vavilovia journal.

Abstract:
Plant Nomenclature is an essential requirement for publications in drug discovery and in pharmacological investigations in modern and traditional medical systems. Mostly names of plants can be presented by pharmaceutical names or scientific binomial names. In this paper, good and bad aspects of both systems are discussed in the context of the recent scientific nomenclatural framework and the systems for its practical applicability. WHO Programme for International Drug Monitoring and is responsible for the WHO Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) database that currently contains 3.6 million records. Numerous plant species are used in various formulations of TCM but we are not sure which particular plant species is used as a whole plant or plant part is used for example Aloe and Piper. In order to monitor pharmacovigilance to herbal medicine products the following nomenclatural criteria are important: (i) only one species of plant name should indicate; (ii) author citation is essential; (iii) it should indicate which of plant part is used. Scientific botanical nomenclature as defined by the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature will a better option. We are of the belief that the adoption of scientific names of plants to denote plant ingredients in traditional formulations are strongly endorsed. This decision if adopted will satisfies all criteria set up by upgrading an old inconsistent system used in publications and formulations will become obsolete.

Abstract The Meiwa and Changshou kumquats originally were described as species, bearing the names Fortunella crassifolia Swingle and Fortunella obovata Tanaka, respectively, Authoratative references of citrus taxonomy do not recognize a scientific name for these kumquats. Botanical names were rejected when data proposed that these two kumquats were intrageneric hybrids of Fortunella, not true species. Application of the International Code of Botanic Nomenclature indicates the correct name of the Meiwa kumquat should be Fortunella × crassifolia Swingle (pro sp.) and the correct name of the Changshou kumquat should be Fortunella × obovata Tanaka (pro sp.). A key is provided for the six taxa of Fortunella.

Full text
Abstract:
The article considers the role that history and botanical politics played during the nomenclatural debates surrounding the decision taken at the XVII International Botanical Congress (IBC) in Vienna in 2005 to conserve the genus Acacia with the type A. penninervis, an acacia from the Australian group, and the confirmation of this decision at the XVIII IBC in Melbourne in 2011. What was unusual about this issue was that it was contested in the public media as well as in professional botanical circles. It also resulted in fierce critiques about how the processes of international botany should operate. Many natural scientists strongly believe that their disciplines are objective and untainted by influences outside ?science', yet this recent example from international botany shows how politics in science, and scientific politics, may cast a long shadow over scientific decisions. In terms of external influences on science, we provide an overview of the competitive claims to Acacia as a national symbol in Australia and Africa that fuelled some of the discussion. We present some of the ?compromise proposals' that were circulated in advance of the Melbourne meeting and describe that meeting, focusing on the implications of the Acacia decision for the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature. We reflect on the complex role played by national identity and emotional passion for plants that has been revealed, while also highlighting how this experience has encouraged many botanists around the world to scrutinize more carefully how their international bodies function and to suggest changes and improvements.

Full text
Abstract:
The handling of controversial Proposal 1584 to conserve the name Acacia with a conserved type for the Australian acacias during the Nomenclature Section meeting at the 17th International Botanical Congress (Vienna) in 2005 is reviewed. Through a simple majority vote, this Section adopted rules requiring a 60% majority of votes to approve any proposal to modify the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature and a simple majority to approve all other motions; motions not receiving the required majority were to be rejected. However, for the motion addressing Proposal 1584, 45.1% voted to conserve the type of the name Acacia for Australian acacias, and 54.9% voted to retain the current African type for the name Acacia. Even though this motion failed to get a 60% majority either way as required by the Section’s own rules, Section officials have concluded that the name Acacia is to be conserved for Australian acacias. Treating a motion as approved, even though it received only minority support, also violates the fundamental principle of standard parliamentary procedure—the right of the majority to approve proposals. For Acacia to be formally conserved, the Nomenclature Section needed to approve a motion addressing Proposal 1584 with a majority vote, and this never happened in Vienna. Recommendations are made on how this process might be improved.

Abstract:
Following the set of informal proposals by Wright and Gillman (2022) to modify the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN, the Code: Turland et al., 2018), in which the authors demanded to allow the retroactive replacement of well-established, valid and legitimate scientific names of organisms with some “indigenous” names, meaning supposedly “pre-existing” vernacular names used by Indigenous Peoples, I presented my detailed counterarguments (Mosyakin, 2022/2023). I advocated for the stability of biological nomenclature, protested against its possible large-scale disruption, and concluded that any “attempts or proposals aimed at granting preferences in biological nomenclature to any political, racial, ethnic, social, gender, religious or other group or groups should be rejected as discriminatory acts”. In response to my criticism, Wright and Gillman (2023) tried to address and debunk some of my arguments. They denied the potentially discriminatory nature of their proposals, insisted on their ideas of using “indigenous” names for replacing retroactively at least some well-established scientific names of organisms, but at the same time modified some of their earlier claims. Unfortunately, these modifications also fail to fit the principles and rules of the current Code, and even those of any other rationally built code of biological nomenclature. In particular, the earlier proposals by Wright and Gillman (2022) on author citations and authorship clearly contradict their new ideas. They now propose to ascribe the authorship of the nomenclaturally new “indigenous” replacement names to the authors of the replaced names, and at the same time they think that those authors are not the authors of names but the authors of “descriptions”. I analyze here these and some other misunderstandings and misinterpretations of the Code. I also demonstrate and confirm, with proper references to relevant sources, the potentially discriminatory nature of any nomenclatural proposals aimed at providing the exceptional or preferential rights to any groups of authors and/or users of biological nomenclature on the basis of their racial, national, ethnic, or ethnocultural identity. I conclude that the “modified” proposals of Wright and Gillman (2023), still aimed at possible replacement of established valid and legitimate scientific names with some vernacular, folk, legendary, fabulous, or traditional (including “indigenous”) names based on the supposed “chronological priority” going before the starting date of 1753, are disruptive for biological nomenclature, illogical or naïve, and simply non-implementable in practice. I briefly consider here some rational and acceptable alternatives for addressing the issues of non-discrimination, real equity, diversity, representation, and recognition of traditional knowledge in biological nomenclature, including several formal proposals to amend the Code, to be considered at the Nomenclature Section of the XX International Botanical Congress (July 2024, Madrid, Spain).

Abstract:
The generic name Verrucispora Shaw & Alcorn (Deuteromycotina) differs from that of Verrucispora E. Horak (Basidiomycotina) by only one letter, and the latter has precedence. Therefore, in accordance with requirements of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, the following changes have been made: Verrucispora becomes Verrucisporota nom. nov., based on Verrucisporota proteacearum comb. nov. Four other species of Verrucispora described by various authors become Verrucisporota brideliae comb. nov., Stenella smilacicola nom. nov., Sirosporim inclicum comb. nov., and Pseudocercospora luculiae comb. nov.

Abstract:
Sventenius published the names and descriptions of new species mainly in two major works, the Additamentum ad Floram Canariensem in 1960 and Plantae Macaronesienses Novae vel minus Cognitae 1-3 between 1969 y 1971. Both these publications, written in Latin, have been the subject of controversy in recent years over the question of whether the new species names published by Sventenius comply or not with the rules of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature which is the international legal framework governing the scientific names of plants. Here it is argued that the Sventenius names are validly published and should be accepted as such.

Full text
Abstract:
In 2020, Plagiothecium mauiense Broth. was recognised as a synonym of P. longisetum Lindb.; however, due to the inability to compare all known original material, the conducted taxonomic analysis was not completed with lectotypification of the name. Syntypes of P. mauiense were found in four American herbaria: Harvard University Herbarium (FH00220142), Miami University Herbarium (MU 000000546), New York Botanical Garden Herbarium (NY01256708) and Yale University Herbarium (YU 233890). Considering the condition of the found material and Articles 9.3, 9.11 and 9.12 of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants (Shenzhen Code) that is currently in force, a specimen NY01256708 was proposed to be the lectotype of P. mauiense.

Abstract:
Pleurothallis marioi was described in Phytotaxa as a new species on 2 June 2017 (Zambrano et al. 2017: 81). However, this name was invalid according to Article 40 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (McNeill et al. 2012), because the protologue was ambiguous in specifying the holotype; whether it was the material in spirit, or a cultivated material that would be unsuitable as a holotype according to Article 40 of the ICN (McNeill et al. 2012). Since all other requirements of the Melbourne Code have been fulfilled, here we provide a new, unambiguous holotype assignment in order to validate this species name P. marioi Zambrano et al. (2017: 81).

Full text
Abstract:
In the July issue of Journal of Paleontology, 84(4), Sánchez (2010) proposed the new genus name Emiliodonta for the Ordovician bivalve genus Emiliania Sánchez, 1999 because of assumed homonymy with Emiliania Hay and Mohler, 1967 (in Hay et al., 1967). The supposed senior name, the genus Emiliania Hay and Mohler, belongs to the coccolithophores, a group of unicellular eukaryotic algae, which have traditionally been treated as plants (e.g., Glaessner, 1945; Tappan, 1980; see also Green and Jordan, 1994; Andersen, 2004 for modern classification) and to which the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) applies. In the original description of Emiliania Hay and Molher the ICBN was used (Hay et al., 1967, p. 447) and the name was validly published under its rules. Animals such as the bivalve Emiliania Sánchez, 1999, in contrast, are treated under the International Code for Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). Both codes are independent (ICBN, Principle I: Greuter et al., 1993, 2000; McNeill et al., 2006; ICZN Article 1: Ride et al., 1985, 1999), and therefore the same names (“homonyms” sensu lato) can coexist under different codes. Consequently, Emiliania Sánchez and Emiliania Hay and Molher are not homonyms in a taxonomic sense but are both legitimate names under the respective code. Furthermore, the name Emiliodonta Sánchez 2010 is superfluous and illegitimate, as “[…] the name of an animal taxon is not to be rejected merely because it is identical with the name of a taxon that is not animal.” (ICZN Article 1.4: Ride et al., 1999).

Full text
Abstract:
Fifteen year ago a draft BioCode was presented to the taxonomic community (Greuter et al. 1996). There is now a new version, published in Taxon (Greuter et al. 2011) and available online on the International Committee on Biological Nomenclature website as well as that of the International Commision for Zoological Nomenclature. Has the BioCode matured since it was last put forward? Was it ahead of its time in the 1990s, particularly in relation to the possibilities of electronic registration? Is it the future yet? As a taxonomist with an active interest in (botanical) nomenclature, I was still a student when this arose the last time and have referred to the literature to see what happened then. Interestingly it turns out that it wasn’t the first time a biocode equivalent was suggested. Minelli (2008) discusses the suggestions drafted by a commission appointed on request of the zoologist Carlo Luciano Bonaparte in regard to the so-called Strickland Code (Strickland et al. 1842), these ideas, like the 1996 BioCode, were not accepted by the taxonomic community. Perhaps third time lucky?

Abstract:
The efficiency of plant resources depends on the correct use of plant names. Ukrainian names of plants belonging to the botanical and agrobiological classification are widely used in the scientific agricultural literature, but both of them are not definitively organized. The crop names have long been used in agricultural practice, in particular during the systematization of regionalized plant varieties. During the registration of a variety, the taxon to which it belongs is indicated and the taxon is indicated by this name in the State Register of Plant Varieties suitable for dissemination in Ukraine. The names of plants adopted in the State Register are a mixture of correct and incorrect names, which arose as a result of an unconscious adaptation of the names of agrobiological nomenclature by likening them to the names of botanical taxa. The list of registered varieties belonging to certain taxa, which are grouped by economic use there is in the State Register. Sometimes varieties and taxa are placed in inappropriate groups. Varieties belonging to the same taxon are sometimes denoted by different species names. Obsolete Latin names or their spelling has a deviation from the accepted given for some taxa of woody plants. Some of the botanical taxa are named by crop names. Russified crop names instead of specifically Ukrainian ones occur and the rules of normative transliteration of varietal names are violated. The plant names constructed in the State Register have negative impact on professional literature. They destroy the system of agrobiological nomenclature and contradict the norms of the scientific style of the literary Ukrainian language. The recommendations of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants should be followed and the «Rules of Plant Nomenclature, Taxonomy, and Cultonomy», designed to regulate Ukrainian plant names to correct these shortcomings, should be applied.
