Thanks Mahadeswara ji. I got response in facebook group Indian Flora <https://www.facebook.com/groups/indianflora/?multi_permalinks=2070015793039749> - tautonym.
I went on to find on internet - any botanical list of tautonyms - I could not find it so far. There are many sites providing zoological. I also see the names are ditto (genus & species) in case of zoological. Just came across page in Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tautonyms> where the opening lines say: Such names are allowed in zoology, but not in botany, where the two parts of the name of a species must differ ... as small as one letter ... Thus I assume there is no good name like tautonym in case of botany. Regards. Dinesh On Sat, Jul 14, 2018 at 8:42 AM, Mahadeswara <[email protected]> wrote: > Very interesting query !
