During the course of sorting out the species of Tectaria Cavanilles (1799: 115, Tectariaceae) in Indochina, I noticed that Tectaria pentagonalis (Phan 2001: 1024) has not validly published. Tectaria pentagonalis seems to be an inadvertent combination, because Phan (2001) did not provide authorship of T. pentagonalis when he made such a combination. The basionym of T. pentagonalis was cited by Phan (2001) in the form “Leptochilus pentagonalis Bonap., 1918”. This citation, according to Art. 41.5 of the International Code of Nomenclature (Turland et al. 2017), does not constitute a full and direct reference to the basionym, because the information of the basionym’s place of valid publication is missing. Thus, T. pentagonalis is justified as invalidly published. So far as I know, the invalidly published Tectaria pentagonalis was also used by Phan (2010) in his another publication and now is adopted in several online resources, such as GBIF (https://www.gbif.org/), Wikipedia (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tectaria), and “Taxonomic Revision of Fern Genus Tectaria Cav. (Tectariaceae) in Thailand” (http://tectaria.myspecies.info/tectaria/tectaria-pentagonalis). For the purpose of legitimately applying T. pentagonalis in nomenclature, here I validly publish this combination and conveniently designate a lectotype for this species.

Abstract—A synoptic revision of the genus Epistephium in Colombia based on morphological evidence is presented for the first time. A total of 19 species gathered in 3 morphological groups are currently recognized in the country, including two new records: E. ellipticum and E. sclerophyllum. Morphological characteristics of all the species are presented and illustrated by line drawings of their perianth segments, except E. lamprophyllum. An original key to the identification of Epistephium species reported in Colombia is provided along with information on their ecology, habitat, and geographical range. Epistephium amplexicaule is lectotypified based on Article 9.3 of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants as this name was published without a holotype.

Abstract Results are provided for the Guiding Vote on the seven formal proposals to amend the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants to be decided by the Fungal Nomenclature Session (FNS) of the XI International Mycological Congress in July 2018. Te ballot for the Guiding Vote was provided online. Tere were 520 valid ballots, submitted by mycologists from 42 countries, belonging to 23 eligible groups and societies, along with authors of proposals. Tw o proposals F-005 and F-006, both concerning DNA sequences as types, exceeded the 75 % No vote that is the threshold above which proposals are considered rejected by the FNS unless formally re-introduced. Two options for amendments to future procedures for the Guiding Vote are proposed: adding eligibility via publication of a nomenclatural novelty among fungi and removing eligibility via membership of IMA MMOs.

The International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology moves to ‘true continuous publication’ at the beginning of 2021: Proposals to emend Rule 24b (2), Note 1 to Rule 27 and Note 2 to Rule 33b of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes

The International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (IJSEM) will move to ‘true continuous publication’ during the first months of 2021 to modernize the workflow and align it with the current online-only nature of the journal. In the new format, articles will be cited using an article number rather than page numbering. The article number will be the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) suffix, i.e., the last six digits of the DOI. Benefits of the new system include streamlining in-house processes, hence, reducing time and costs, and speeding up the publication time of the final ‘Version of Record’. Because of the new format of the IJSEM, it is necessary to emend Rule 24b (2) and Note 1 paragraph 3 of Rule 27 of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP) to regulate matters of priority for papers published after January 2021. We also propose adding another example to Note 2 of Rule 33b to clarify how nomenclatural authorities of names published in the IJSEM from 2021 onward must be cited.

In the opinion of the authors, the genus name Rhodoligotrophos was formed in violation of Principle 3 and Rule 10a of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes which requires that genus names are to be treated as Latin substantives. We therefore propose renaming the genus Rhodoligotrophos as Rhodoligotrophus. A Request for an Opinion is submitted to the Judicial Commission of the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes regarding this proposed name change.
