Taxonomic and Nomenclatural 

 Changes 



A number of taxonomic and nomenclatural 

 changes were proposed in Volumes 1 and 2. 

 The changes included such categories as new 

 genus, new species, new names to replace hom- 

 onyms, new synonyms, new combinations and 

 new status. The new genus, new species and 

 new names were listed on pp. xii and xiii of 

 both Volumes 1 and 2. The other taxonomic 

 and nomenclatural changes with pertinent 

 page numbers are listed in the sections which 

 follow. 



NEW SYNONYMS 



There were some new synonyms at the generic 

 level and numerous new synonyms at the spe- 

 cific level. These were indicated in the Catalog 

 text by the abbreviation "N. syn." following 

 the bibliographic citation of the taxon being 

 synonymized. The synonymy is to be attrib- 

 uted to the author of the section unless the 

 name of another specialist in parentheses fol- 

 lows "N. syn.". In the list which follows, the 

 name of the authority for the synonymy fol- 

 lows the name of the author of the taxon. For 

 example, in the first entry, "Xyela coloraden- 

 sis Rohwer under Xyela minor Norton, 

 Smith," Smith made the s5Tionymy.
