Abbreviations
- Authors’ names :
-
The names of authors are abbreviated in accordance with Recommendation 46A and ‘Guide Citation’ of the Seattle Code. The European lists of author abbreviations compiled by Ainsworth (1971), Hawksworth (1974), and the American list published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (Anonymous. 1960) were consulted. In references to literature authors’ names were deliberately not abbreviated.
- &:
-
When a name has been published jointly by two authors the names of both are linked by an ampersand (Seattle Code, Recommendation 46B). In references to literature published by several authors the name of the last is preceded by the ampersand (Seattle Code, ‘Guide Citation’)
- & al.:
-
The abbreviation ofet alii (and others) is used when a name has been published by more than two authors, the abbreviated citation being restricted to that of the first author, followed by “& al.” (Seattle Code, Recommendation 46B)
- Serials :
-
Serial publications are cited in conformance with the abbreviations in the World List of scientific Periodicals published in the years 1900–1960 (Brown and Stratton, 1963–1965) and succeeding annual volumes
- WL:
-
referred to as “WL”
- in :
-
The abbreviated citations are always preceded by the word “in” (italicized). If the name of a periodical has changed, the abbreviations used conform with the title of the journal at the time the publication was cited; if this title is not mentioned in the WL its present title abbreviation is given between square brackets. Citations are made in accordance with the ‘Guide Citation’ of the Seattle Code, volumes are indicated by an arabic numeral, printed in boldface type. When volumes are not numbered the years on the title pages are used as volume numbers. If a volume consists of parts paged separately the number of the part has been inserted in parentheses; this is also done when the parts have been issued in different years. If a periodical has appeared in more than one series in which the numbers of the volumes are repeated, the later series are designated by a roman capital figure. “II”, “III” etc. Pages are given in arabic numerals, except those otherwise designated in the original
- Exsiccata works :
-
Distributed exsiccata series accompanied by printed matter are considered as serial publications and coded in conformance with the WL abbreviations
- No.:
-
They can always be recognized by the designation “No...” instead of by the number of the page
- Ed.:
-
To avoid confusion the editors(s), “Ed.”, is (are) often cited in square brackets
- Fasc.:
-
Fascicle “Fasc.”
- Cent.:
-
Centurion “Cent.” indications are always given in arabic numerals.
- Books :
-
The titles of books are correspondingly abbreviated as serials (Seattle Code, ‘Guide Citation’) and further adapted to the title abbreviations of publications by Hawksworth (1974) and to the list of abbreviations published by the Commonwealth Mycological Institute (Anonymous, 1969). Volumes are indicated by an arabic numeral, printed in boldface type.
- ed.:
-
If a book has appeared in more than one edition, after the first these are designated by “ed. 2”, “ed. 3” etc
- []:
-
Square brackets are always used to enclose informative notes on the (original) citation of binomials, authors, papers, books, and so forth
- l.c.:
-
Loco citato; refers to literature cited previously for the same fungus
- apud:
-
When a binomial of one author is published in the work of another the word “apud” is used if the work appeared in a serial publication or exsiccata series
- in:
-
the word “in” if the work is a book. This is in accordance with the Index of Fungi (Anonymous, 1972).
- ex:
-
When a name has been proposed but not validly published by one author (herbarium name; manuscript name; cases explained atO, Θ, * or † below) and thereafter validly published and ascribed to him by another author, the word “ex” is used to connect the names of the two authors (Seattle Code, Recommendation 46C, 50A). In accordance with Recommendation 46E of the Seattle Code the word “ex” is also used to connect the authors of ‘devalidated’ and ‘revalidated’ names; see below under “dn” and “rn” [it was formerly recommended to cite the author of a devalidated name between square brackets; see also Donk (1961), who has proposed to use the word “per” for these citations]. Where the original, diagnostic characters or circumscription of a taxon have been altered, the two following abbreviated indications are used (according to the Seattle Code, Recommendation 47A; see also McVaugh et al., 1968)
- p.p.:
-
Pro parte (in part). Indicates that a taxon used in a certain sense by one author includes a part only of the taxon of the same name as circumscribed by an earlier author
- emend.:
-
Emendavit (emended, changed by). Followed by the name of an author who has changed the circumscription of a taxon without excluding its type
- =:
-
Equal. This sign is used for taxonomic synonyms based on different types
- ≡:
-
Triple equal. Used for nomenclatural synonyms based on the same type
- dn :
-
Devalidated name, i.e. a name published before the starting-point of the appropriate group (1801 and 1821, respectively, see Seattle Code, Art. 13 e, f)
- rn :
-
Revalidated name or epithet; first known valid publication after the starting-point of the given group
- :Fries:
-
The colon before the name Fries as author means that an earlier validly published name was ‘sanctioned’ by Fries in the starting-point books Systema mycologicum and Elenchus fungorum (see Donk, 1961)
- V :
-
Means that a correction in the spelling has been made (according to the Seattle Code, Art. 73)
- H :
-
Illegitimate later homonym (Seattle Code, Art. 64)
- np :
-
No priority according to Art. 60 of the Seattle Code (epithet from another rank)
- Θ:
-
Nomen nudum; a naked name, i.e. a name published with no description or diagnosis, nor any reference to one
- O :
-
Perfect state (mostly telia) not described
- Δ:
-
Perfect state (mostly telia) for the first time validly described
- t :
-
Means that the type contains or refers to telia
- *:
-
An invalidly published name according to Art. 36 of the Seattle Code (no Latin diagnosis as required on or after 1 Jan. 1935)
- †:
-
Invalidly published combination according to the third paragraph of Art. 33 of the Seattle Code (no full reference to the basionym as required on or after 1 Jan. 1953)
