International Code of Botanical Nomenclature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Botanical nomenclature is independent of zoological and bacteriological nomenclature, which are governed by their own Codes (see Nomenclature Codes). The International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) is the set of rules and recommendations dealing with the formal botanical names that are given to plants. Nomenclature concerns itself only with the question which name should be used for any taxon that is recognized by taxonomy: see correct name. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/International_Code_of_Botanical_Nomenclature   (563 words)

International Code of Zoological Nomenclature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature is a set of rules in zoology that have one fundamental aim: to provide the maximum universality and continuity in classifying all animals according to taxonomic judgment. The Code is meant to guide the nomenclature of animals, while leaving the zoologists some degree of freedom in naming and classifying new species. In opinion 2027 (published in Volume 60, Part 1 of the Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature, 31 March 2003 [1]) the Commission "conserved the usage of 17 specific names based on wild species, which are pre-dated by or contemporary with those based on domestic forms", confirming F. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/International_Code_of_Zoological_Nomenclature   (763 words)

How animals are given scientific names There are three main Codes of Nomenclature: the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, covering animals; the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, covering plants (including fungi); and the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria. Hugh Strickland presented a Code of nomenclature to the British Association for the Advancement of Science (Charles Darwin was on its committee). At the 17th Congress of Zoology in Monaco, responsibility for future Codes was transferred from the International Zoological Congresses to the International Union of Biological Sciences. www.museums.org.za /bio/animal_nomenclature.htm   (3011 words)

International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Tokyo Code) - Untitled Its officers are: (1) the president of the Nomenclature Section, elected by the organizing committee of the International Botanical Congress in question; (2) the recorder, appointed by the same organizing committee; (3) the rapporteur-général, elected by the previous Congress; (4) the vice-rapporteur, elected by the organizing committee on the proposal of the rapporteur-général. The Code may be modified only by action of a plenary session of an International Botanical Congress on a resolution moved by the Nomenclature Section of that Congress1.

International Code of Botanical Nomenclature A nomenclatural type (typus) is that element to which the name of a taxon is permanently attached, whether as a correct name or as a synonym. The nomenclatural type is not necessarily the most typical or representative element of a taxon. For nomenclatural purposes names given to lichens shall be considered as applying to their fungal component. www.micologi.it /ICBN_chap2.htm   (7125 words)

Intro and Background The AAAS Botanical Club met in Philadelphia in 1904, and adopted the renegade "American Code of Botanical Nomenclature" which deviated from the older, general Laws in: 1) priority was to start in 1753, not any other date; and 2) every taxon was to be based on a "type," which was invariably linked to that name. As the famous botanical nomenclaturalist Marinus Anton Donk said, "Nomenclature is the handmaiden of taxonomy." As such, taxonomy and nomenclature should not be confused even though they have evolved together. I apologize to workers in other groups (especially because the fungi are not plants), but the nomenclature which governs fungi is the same as that for plants, and the examples hold true throughout. fp.bio.utk.edu /mycology/Nomenclature/nom-intro.htm   (1738 words)

Biological Nomenclature - McNeill: The BioCode: Integrated bionomenclature for the 21st century? Biological nomenclature, the principles and procedures governing the scientific names of organisms (animals, plants, fungi, protists, bacteria, etc.) and also of viruses, is vital for all scientific communication. Interestingly, the International Commission for the Nomenclature of Cultivated Plants has found it possible to adopted the new terminology in the most recent edition of the International code of nomenclature for cultivated plants (Trehane et al., 1995).

Unasylva - Vol. 10, No. 4 - Scientific nomenclature trees This problem of nomenclature stabilization was one of the most important considered by the Nomenclature Section of the Eighth International Botanical Congress at Paris in 1954, in amending the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature of 1952. A possible benefit is the increased interest aroused among foresters in plant nomenclature and their support of proposals to amend the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature toward more stabilization. For the Seventh International Botanical Congress at Stockholm in 1950, an amendment was submitted similar to that quoted below to reject a name as not effectively published if it neither had been accepted by a second author nor listed in an index of scientific names within one hundred years after publication. www.fao.org /docrep/x5381e/x5381e05.htm   (2322 words)

International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Tokyo Code) - Article 54 The International code of nomenclature of bacteria provides that a bacterial name is illegitimate if it is a later homonym of a name of a taxon of bacteria, fungi, algae, protozoa, or viruses. 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 of this Code, is illegitimate if it becomes a homonym of a plant name when the taxon to which it applies is first treated as a plant (see also Art. (a) Later homonyms of the names of taxa once treated as plants are illegiti-mate, even though the taxa have been reassigned to a different group of organisms to which this Code does not apply. www.biologie.uni-hamburg.de /b-online/code/Art_54.htm   (158 words)

PBIO 450 Lecture Notes -- International Code -- Spring 1998: Principles The International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, published in 1994 as volume 131 of the irregular series Regnum Vegetabile, is the result of deliberations held at Yokohama, Japan in late August and early September in 1993. The purpose of Principle I is to establish the independence of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature from the codes dealing with zoological nomenclature and bacteriological nomenclature. If one defines the genus Eupatorium so as to included hundreds of species, the impact to the nomenclature at the species rank can be radically different if one were to circumscribe Eupatorium to include only ten or so species. www.life.umd.edu /emeritus/reveal/PBIO/WWW/ICBNprinc.html   (1786 words)

Why Latin? All the various biological codes of nomenclature try to permanently associate names with objects, mainly by requiring that an author of a new name must designate a real object, carefully preserved somewhere--a type specimen--that will forever bear that name. Accordingly, the biological codes generally require that a description of a new organism be given in a widely-used modern language. When the 1906 Vienna Code required that, as of 1 January 1908, new species or genera had to be described in Latin, American renegades promulgated their own Code and continued publishing new species and genera in English (Arthur et al. members.aol.com /magarland/botlat/latnom.htm   (1214 words)
