 PhyloCode Text   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Under the preexisting codes, it is often difficult to name clades one at a time, the way that new species are named, because a taxon name is affected by its rank, which in turn depends on the ranks of more and less inclusive taxa.
In order to indicate which names are established under this code and therefore have explicit phylogenetic definitions (and whose endings are not reflective of rank), it may be desirable to distinguish these names from supraspecific names governed by preexisting codes, particularly when both are used in the same publication.
The codes of biological nomenclature that were in operation when the PhyloCode was drafted (1997-2000)--specifically, the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria and the International Code of Virus Classification and Nomenclature.

 Principles of nomenclature of zoological taxa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Unlike the provisions of ICZN (see I.3.3.1) and other international codes, the rules suggested here for rank-based names of higher taxa (I.3.3.2), hierarchy-based names (I.3.4) and circumscription-based names (I.3.5) are not official and thus not mandatory.
This nomenclature is of no practical use, since no criteria of name availability have been formulated (about the importance of availability criteria see I.3.1.1), and it is hard to imagine what such criteria might be.
Phylogenetic nomenclature as suggested by some authors (not cited here because of their poor knowledge of nomenclatural principles) violates the ICZN: phylogenetic nomenclature takes family names generated according to the ICZN rules of ranking nomenclature (see I.3.3.1 below) are use them under entirely different set of rules.

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.
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.

 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.
Anyone who has used our existing codes to try to determine the application of many of the old and little used names published in eighteenth and early nineteenth century literature will recognize how time-consuming a thorough nomenclatural investigation under the terms of the existing codes must be.
In the light of these nomenclatural problems that are particularly serious for protists, some have suggested a new and separate code of nomenclature for protists (see Corliss [1993] for references).

There are several codes of nomenclature that regulate the description and use of names in different branches of the tree of life.
These are: the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN), the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN), the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants (ICNCP), the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria (ICNB), and the International Code of Virus Classification and Nomenclature (ICVCN).
The viral code is less well developed than the others, but it includes an official classification for the viruses as well as a list of approved species names.

 The Human Ehrlichiosis in the United States, features of the organism
Ehrlichiae are small, gram-negative bacteria that primarily invade leukocytes (white blood cells), the same cells which fight disease by destroying microorganisms that enter the body.
In the leukocytes, ehrlichiae divide to form vacuole-bound colonies known as morulae (plural for morula, which is the Latin word for mulberry, referring to the mulberry-like clustering of the dividing organisms).
The names of the latter organisms are enclosed in quotation marks because they have not been formally proposed and accepted according to the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria, Bacteriological Code.

 About us [The International Organization for Mycoplasmology]
The International Organization for Mycoplasmology (IOM) was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit organization and exists to promote the cooperative international study of mycoplasmas (Mollicutes) and mycoplasmal diseases and to disseminate knowledge about their characteristics, effects, transmission, and control.
Among them are the IOM's sponsorship of biennial international scientific congresses, publication of its scientific proceedings, awarding international travel grants for students to attend its meetings, supporting workshops for the study of mycoplasmal techniques, publishing a quarterly newsletter and now a home page on the Internet.
To advance mutual goals and interests, the International Research Program of Comparative Mycoplasmology (IRPCM)(formerly a consultative group sponsored by the World Health Organization and the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations) was affiliated with the IOM in 1986.

A name or nomenclatural act is available, and takes authorship and date, only when it has satisfied the provisions of this Article and, when relevant, of Articles 11 to 20 (for date and author see Articles 21 and 50).
An editor should ensure that the whole of the description and illustrations relating to a new nominal taxon, and particularly any nomenclatural acts or data necessary to confer availability on its name, are published in the same work and on the same day.
A name once available remains so irrespective of its invalidity as a junior synonym, a junior homonym, an unjustified emendation, an unnecessary substitute name, or a suppressed name, unless the Commission has ruled otherwise [Arts.

Appropriate scientific names are important for the ability of scientists, regulators, growers and the public to accurately discuss organisms that cause disease and thus avoid confusion and costly mistakes.
A stable nomenclature is useful in the dissemination of information about epidemics or treatment options.
Where names are published outside the International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, the reference is to the validating publication followed by the reference in which the original description was published.
