Recent changes in the international rules affecting the nomenclature of fungi
1IUMS International Commission on the Taxonomy of Fungi, Commonwealth Mycological Institute, Kew, Surrey, UK.
Abstract:
Major changes in the rules governing the nomenclature of fungi were enacted at the XIIIth International Botanical Congress in 1981. The effects of these, and the reasons why changes were made, are reviewed with particular emphasis on those concerned with the starting-point date and fungi with pleomorphic life cycles.
