A follow-up on Les Mehrhoff's answer. There is a link to the International
Code of Botanical Nomenclature in the Maine Natural History Digest
(http://www.vfthomas.com/digest.htm). Look under "Kingdom Metaphyta"/general
information/nomenclature. While you are there, feel free to browse around
and note a number of changes and additions.

See you all(?) this spring at the JBS winter meeting.
