Question about nomenclature

A question about nomenclature. Is it permissible for a genus of fungi and a genus of beetles to have the same name?

Re : Question about nomenclature

there is no unicode, so yes. But if it is a yet uncoined name it would be advisble to avoid it :-)

Re : Question about nomenclature

Thanks, the name has been around since 1967. Caccobius of Kimbrough in Kimbrough & Korf, Am. J. Bot. 54 (1): 22. Is probably a mushroom as well as a beetle genus (dung beetle).

Best regard Peter

Re : Question about nomenclature

This case is not too rare.

For instance Trichia is a myxomycete (so a plant ....) and a snail, too.

Best, Lothar

Re : Question about nomenclature

Danke Lothar. Myxomyceten sind wohl jetzt Pflanzen?

Gruß Peter

Re : Question about nomenclature

Hello Peter,

the relevant part of the Code is Art. 54 (incl. Rec. 54A): https://www.iapt-taxon.org/nomen/pages/main/art_54.html

Cheers

Re : Question about nomenclature

Hallo Peter,

Myxos fallen wie die Pilze in den Botanischen Code. Also darf ein Myxo nicht gleich heißen wie eine Pflanze oder ein Pilz, ein Pilz darf nicht so heißen wie eine Pflanze, aber durchaus so wie ein Tier - dafür gibt es einen eigenen Zoologischen Code.

Natürlich sind Myxos keine Pflanzen, genauso wenig wie Pilze es sind.

LG von Lothar

Re : Question about nomenclature

Auch so hast du das gemeint. Alles klar Danke. Gruß Peter

Thomas Læssøe, 02-12-2019 13:51

Re : Question about nomenclature

but note that no longer is a botanical code but a code that also in name includes the fungi: International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants. In my opinon an imporant step forward. Myxomycota/Mycetozoa has an interesting nomenclatural situation..... (can be seen as included in the named code if fungi is not viewed as Fungi)

Re : Question about nomenclature

Hello Thomas,

I did not know that. This is a step forward, also in my eyes.
