CAPITALISATION OF SPECIFIC NAMES. Hitherto the rule of Tfte Naturalist has 

 been the Zoological one, that specific names shall invariably commence with a small 

 letter, never with capitals. Henceforth this rule will still apply to all Zoological names, 

 but in def-*renci to the wishes of our botanical contributors the specific names of plants 

 will conform in this respect to the standard catalogue or monograph in each branch 

 of botany.
