Pankaj ji This and many other issues of nomenclature were the result of tussle between American taxonomists (hence separate American Code) and European (rather Non-American) Taxonomists, which continued till 1930. American taxonomists accepted tautonyms, did not accept Latin diagnosis and Nomina conservanda till it was resolved at Cambridge IBC in 1930.
