in Latin. If the name is a modern patronymic, the genitive 

 is always formed by adding-, to the exact and complete name, 

 an i if the person is a man, or an ae if the person is a woman, 

 even if the name has a Latin form ; it is placed in the plural if 

 the dedication involves several persons of the same name." 

 Examples: Eleodes niineninaclicri, Cydimon pcyi. 



"Recommendation. The best specific name is a Latin ad- 

 jective, short, euphonic, and of easy pronunciation. Latinized 

 Greek words or barbarous words may, however, be used." 



Examples : Panurginus planatus, Tetragoneuria cynosura. 



Article 16: "Geographic names are to be given as sub- 

 stantives in the genitive, or are to be placed in an adjectival 

 form." 



Examples : Halictoides novaeangliac , Plcuroiropis kansensis. 



Article 20: "Recommendations. The prefixes sub and pseiido 

 should be used only with adjectives and substantives, sub with 

 Latin words, pscndo with Greek words, and they should not 

 be used in combination with proper names. The terminations 

 aides and ides should be used in combination only with Greek 

 or Latin substantives ; they should not be used with proper 

 names." 



Examples: Nemoria subcroceata, Lycaena pseudarginlus, Sphaeri- 

 dium scarabacoides. Pscudamericana and pseudimitans are bad.
