Dear all, The most important thing for nomenclatural changes is the review and revision of more and more texts and literatures.
More researches are being underway for finding out the earlier described names (but after Linnaeus, 1753). Because they might be in different language published earlier somewhere and we need to dig out them. This happened when European colonisation in Asian countries flourished; they collected plants from here and described there and those literatures might be hiding somewhere in an antique.
