Gurcharan ji, Thank you for your clarification here as stated : "There is nothing like accepted legitimate name. Any name is legitimate which has been published according to the rules of nomenclature and can be considered while deciding the correct/accepted name. There can be many legitimate name for a taxon, but only one correct/accepted name. All rest of names legitimate as well as illegitimate ones are its synonyms." I must wonder about the reasoning involved that "legitimate accepted" name should not be used together, because in order for any accepted name to be accepted , it must have been published and therefore legitimate. Are you taking a position that ,once a name *becomes accepted* that it (*by virtue of becoming accepted*) *looses status as 'legitimate'* (?) and so combination of "accepted legitimate" is an error of nomenclatural terminology ?...is legitimate ' implied ' in accepted and therefore redundant ? Please clarify... regards, Ron
