60.8. The use of a compounding form contrary to Rec. 60G in an adjectival epithet is treated as an error to be corrected. Ex. 17. Candolle's *Pereskia "opuntiaeflora"* is to be cited as *P. opuntiiflora* DC. (1828), and *Myrosma "cannaefolia"* of the younger Linnaeus, as *M. cannifolia* L. f. (1782). Ex. 18. *Cacalia "napeaefolia"* and *Senecio* *"napeaefolius"* are to be cited as *Cacalia napaeifolia* DC. (1838) and *Senecio napaeifolius* (DC.) Sch. Bip. (1845), respectively; the specific epithet refers to the resemblance of the leaves to those of the genus *Napaea* L. (not *"Napea"*), and the substitute (connecting) vowel *-i* should have been used instead of the genitive singular inflection *-ae*. Ex. 19. However, in *Andromeda polifolia* L. (1753), the epithet is a pre-Linnaean plant name (*"Polifolia"* of Buxbaum) used in apposition and not an adjective; it is not to be altered to *"poliifolia"* (*Polium* -leaved). http://ibot.sav.sk/icbn/frameset/0065Ch7OaGoNSec1a60.htm -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
